Those "articles" are utterly useless.
I have had a couple of people in front of me interviewing for a C# job and give me canned answers. It's easy to sniff them out. The tone and cadence of their answer changes when you get on a question they've memorized and I do throw some of those questions in. But, simplify things and you really get a sense of what you're dealing with. I've had people not able to tell me the difference between "public" and "private". See ya! A lot of the people I interview don't even make it to the whiteboard to write some code.
It's frickin' sad that there are "schools" and hiring managers our there that think "any monkey can write code". Wrong! The monkeys outnumber the humans that know what they're doing 20 to 1.

True. I haven't had the joy of interviewing anyone in the last 2 years.

As the first one appears to be spectacularly inaccurate and not at all funny I didn't bother reading beyond it. If these are the best, what are the rest like?
