I've always wondered why many of the larger tech firms don't have anonymous interviewing. Wouldn't it be pretty trivial to implement?

You could just have the candidate go into a room with a computer with no internet access and type out answers to algorithmic questions. The instructions could be delivered via typed text. It would be incredibly impersonal, but it would be hard to discern personality given the industry's propensity to have trivia/algorithm questions.

This goes against the entire reason you interview.

This is not about hiring a mechanical labourer (Musician, Factor worker, Computer Repairer) it's about professionals which is team work.

I think this is the first time I've seen a musician called a mechanical worker. Ensemble music is teamwork, and good solo music isn't mechanical either.
