I have had this exact experience with Triplebyte both as an engineer and as a hiring manager.
I simply do not care about things like, “what does malloc return”. I do not care what people know about bloom filters in Postgres. The 99.99% of web developers don’t have to know these things. I do not care if you can implement Tic-Tac-Toe.
It’s poor interviewing, which is the entire product they’ve been offering.
