What makes you think a bullshit artist that good a) doesn't actually know his shit well enough and is just lazy and b) won't pass your technical interview by either actually knowing enough or absorbing enough test prep material?

Also, how common do you think these people are? IMO, not common enough to design an interview process around. Then again, I don't subscribe to the "one bad apple will torch the orchard" paranoia popular in this industry.
