13. Why do IT interviews
successfully predict
role/stack fit?
#TechIEtalks
Q7

14. Interviewers look into a candidate’s real
time experience by asking for specific
solutions and can better judge candidate
suitability for the position.

tech interviews?
#TechIEtalks
Q8

16. #TechIEtalks
A8
Online interviews give candidate
freedom. They can attend from a
comfortable place & at a convenient
time. The candidate feels less tense
and can give stronger answers. It’s also
simpler logistics for an early in the
process technical round.
