- bitfilped 3mo agoA skilled employee would never skip that step, why should you do so in an interview context? Skipping that step seems like a task failure to me just as much as any other part of the question from an interviewer perspective. Maybe I shouldn't hire the guy that blindly runs code just because someone "senior" to them asks.
