Meta to Allow AI in Coding Tests for Job Applicants
Meta is letting people use AI to help them code during job interviews.
This is because AI can now write code pretty well.
"Vibe coding" is where you use AI tools to write software fast.
Meta wants to see if new hires can use AI, and existing employees are helping by doing mock interviews.
Some other companies are not as open to AI use in job applications.
Meta will allow job candidates to use AI tools during coding tests.
This approach aligns with the concept of "vibe coding."
