☆ Tech interviewers can't tell when candidates use ChatGPT to cheat in coding rounds, experiment finds
  + stars: | 2024-02-21 | by ( Kali Hays | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
One possibility is the coding rounds of the typical tech job interview, where candidates are prompted by interviewers to solve technical problems. So, job candidates can easily use something like ChatGPT to effectively cheat their way to fast solutions, according to a recent experiment conducted by interviewing.io, a popular platform for mock tech interviews and industry recruiting. When coding problems were taken verbatim from LeetCode, job candidates using ChatGPT solved correctly 73% of the time, interviewing.io found. That’s far worse than how tech job candidates fare on their own. Relying on their own abilities, interviewing.io found that job candidates passed coding rounds of interviews 53% of the time.

Hopping from one mid-six-figure salary job in Big Tech to the next? More tech workers get laid offOver the last 18 months, tech workers say it's felt difficult to stay employed as round after round of layoffs have swept Big Tech and the broader industry. The tech job market got tougherTo add insult to injury, keeping a job in tech isn’t the only thing that’s more difficult. Aline Lerner, a former tech engineer and founder of interviewing.io, a site for tech recruiting and mock interviewing for tech job seekers, said it's now much more difficult to land a tech job, particularly at a high-profile or Big Tech company. “Anecdotally, I’d say it’s the hardest it’s been to get a tech job since probably the dot-com bust," Lerner said.

☆ It's starting to look like majoring in computer science isn't the road to the promised land of money and job security after all

Many computer science majors say job hunting has become tougher after layoffs hit the industry. Ben Leong, a Singaporean computer science professor, said getting a job was never easy. He told Insider he picked his major because he was interested in technology — and also because of the industry's salaries. Wong told Insider last month that he's applied to 17 jobs and has heard back from five companies.

Big Tech is losing its appeal for new graduates and young tech workers starting to look elsewhere to launch their careers. Peers and mentors warn them to avoid the trappings of embarking on a Big Tech career. Based on conversations with students and companies, even students from top schools including Stanford and MIT and junior engineers from top tech companies are "feeling the crunch now," Lerner said. Tech students are applying to jobs in other fieldsWhile students and young engineers are still interested in pursuing tech-focused careers, where they want to put in their time is changing. The impact of waning interest in Big Tech among students on major companies remains to be seen.
