Very good point about screening.

When I was interviewing people, phone screen with some basic concept questions would filter out 80% of applicants with nicely looking resumes; an hour-long whiteboard screen with FizzBuzz kind of problems would take care of the rest. Very quick and efficient process.



If the end result - filter out every applicant -- I have quicker and more efficient process in mind.
