Interviews are a 100-year-old ritual.
2 strangers, 30 minutes, 20 rehearsed questions.
Both pretending to be someone they’re not.
And we call that hiring?
The most high-stakes decision in a company - who to trust with your work - is made in the least reliable way.
Gut feel. Culture fit. Vibes.
Meanwhile, real talent gets passed over.
Good interviews reward:
• Confidence
• Charisma
• Conformity
But the best hires often have:
• Grit
• Curiosity
• Quiet excellence
We're filtering out the real doers.
The cost of interview-led hiring?
→ False positives: great talkers who can't deliver
→ False negatives: great builders who can't pitch themselves
→ Burnout from 7-stage loops
→ Biased decisions dressed as "instinct"
In today's time:
An AI agent can watche you build, solve, collaborate, lead.
It learns your agency, skill, and intent.
It lets your demonstrates who you are.
We already track how people code, write, communicate, and learn.
AI can now process that.
Pattern-match. Contextualize.
It knows if you're "really good" at something - long before an interviewer does.
The next generation won't sit for interviews.
They’ll demonstrate, not claim.
And their AI life-partner will say:
“Here’s what you’re great at. Here’s who needs you. Here’s your offer.”
Let’s stop asking “Tell me about a time when…”
Let’s start saying:
“Here’s what I saw you do. We want you.”
Let’s build a world where proof-of-work > interviews
Let’s make hiring interview-free.
