The interview process is broken — and it could be costing employees much-needed technology talent.

A survey of more than 1,100 software engineers in the US, Canada and Latin America found that developers were more likely to turn down a job opportunity if subjected to a frustrating interview process.

Terminal’s State of Engineering 2021 report found that more than half (56%) would be put off a role if the interview process was disorganized, whereas 49% said they’d be more likely to pass on a job after being interviewed by someone who didn’t understand the role or the technology.
