Had a scheduled call to interview a dev contractor. He told us any typing noise we hear is just him taking notes. Ok. After several questions the long awkward pauses, typing and furious mouse wheels make it evident he's a liar and looking up answers.

Still managed to tank the interview and wasted our time.

I sure hope that wasn't one of you guys.

    On a positive note you found someone who knows how to use stack overflow properly.

    Looking up answers is a big part of the job but only one piece of the pie.

    I don't mind that knowledge is lacking. If you lie to me about it I will find out. Then you look like a fool. Be honest, and we'll work with that.
