By first principles that makes sense. Creating such a question though which is simple and generic enough for a candidate with no company context to attempt + also possible to complete in a reasonable time window is tough. Definitely doable but requires time spend + experimentation on what works for you
What seems to be working for companies is ability to identify if candidate's used LLMs unfairly during interviews, all interviewers are following the planned agenda and taking decisions consistently and having the right evaluation metrics
We are trying to solve these problems at fairground.work . would be glad to demo if you want to take it for a spin

Engineering hiring has changed. Too much noise, too many interviews, and grunt work your developers hate. Candidates use LLMs during interviews while interviewers are stuck with the same methods from five years ago.
