Yes, tech hiring is that broken. Especially places paying a pretty penny or those with “great expectations”, will see a glut of smooth talkers who can do anything but build, and want nothing but wealth.

Exactly. Not to flog this dead-and-buried horse again, but it so obvious that tech hiring is a beauty contest and and exercise in social engineering and NOT a serious attempt to get the smartest and most productive people working at the jobs that need filling.
I'll goto my grave thinking that the easiest way to fix hiring is just give promising job seekers a week or two of real work BEFORE hiring and do away with all the silly whiteboard stuff and "gotcha" crap, and simply evaluate how the applicant actually performed doing real job stuff.
Sink or swim hiring...yes yes I know who am I to express how to fix hiring?
