Most candidates can speak well about interesting projects they'd worked on in the past, but a significant percentage of those can't pass a coding test.
Also, not being able to speak well about a past project is highly correlated with doing well on a coding test.
Sounds like one or the other should be thrown out. (Or maybe only the small percentage who do well on both will go on to do well on the job?)
One or other should be thrown out. Or both thrown out. Or neither thrown out.
Maybe only the small percentage who do well on both will go on to do well on the job. Or maybe large percentage will do well on the job. Or maybe a percentage who do bad on both will do well on the job.
In short: there is no data at all about doing well on the job, so we don't know what to throw out and whom to chose.
