In the interviews I’ve taken so far, I’ve generally asked candidates a very simple recursion question.

Then I recently had an interview myself (thank god for no pressure) where I was asked to do more or less the same thing myself, and I totally blanked. It took that to make me realize it probably wasn’t a good problem.

At the same time, pretty much all the candidates we’ve hired have worked out.

I’m starting to think it might be easiest to just hire anyone that applies and doesn’t seem crazy.
