A growing number of employers are permitting job candidates to use AI coding agents during technical interviews. The shift changes what is being assessed: rather than writing code unaided, applicants must show they can direct and work with AI tools effectively. Commenters note this mirrors real-world engineering work, where AI assistance is now standard, and raises questions about how to evaluate core programming ability.
Why now: AI tools are rapidly changing hiring practices in tech, prompting debate over what skills interviews should measure.
