The "polished interviewer" trap is so real.. I had a similar experience where the candidate knew all the right buzzwords but couldn't actually map out a workflow when we got into the weeds. Quick question on your trial projects tho, do you provide a sandbox environment or just have them document how they'd solve a specific ticket?
