HN has its fashionable topics. Interview bashing is popular at the moment. It's also a suggestion to me that maybe there are more people looking for work right now. That's not a particularly good sign. Either the benefits to job swapping are too great to ignore, or there are too many failed startups, and companies failing to retain their staff.
Edit: Or it could be that "school's out for summer", and there are a fresh new batch of grads, masters grads and PhD's on the market.
Well, don't forget that all of us are just not interviewing to get jobs, but interviewing people to bring into our companies. It's important to get right, and passion about the topic is encouraging, don't you think?
