Whose interview process has caught up to the new way of working?

Writing code isn't part of the job now, so it shouldn't be part of the interview either. Who's found a better way?

I just call and talk to a candidate one call that’s it

The better way existed before AI existed. Take-home tasks were always poor attempts to find a measure for technical ability. Pairing exercises or live problem-solving tasks were, and still are, vastly more effective. If your team uses AI for those challenges on the job, then the people you interview should too.

The measure should always be the quality of a solution a candidate produces in response to a problem, not how they got to the solution. If you want to dive into the 'how' then what you're actually measuring is communication, something AI is still pretty bad at.
