The AGI vibes with Claude Code are real, but the micromanagement tax is heavy. I spend most of my time babysitting agents.

I expect interviews will evolve into "build project X with an LLM while we watch" and audit of agent specs

I've been doing vibe code interviews for nearly a year now. Most people are surprisingly bad with AI tools. We specifically ask them to bring their preferred tool, yet 20–30% still just copy-paste code from ChatGPT.

fun stats: corelation is real, people who were good at vibe code, also had offer(s) with other companies that didn't run vibe code interviews.

From what I've heard, what few interviews there are for software engineers these days, they do have you use models and see how quickly you can build things.

Sounds great to me. Leetcode is outdated and heavily abused by people who share the questions ahead of time in various forums and chats.
