    That was the biggest flag to me. Nobody in any kind of business uses @gmail.com. Maybe some Etsy person selling out of their extra bedroom, but that's it. Domain names and email ho…

    Competency tests have helped me get in the door. That said, they seem to work best when they're part of an overall interview process. I think it's a mistake to look at only the hig…
