I don't see how not having some degree of interpersonal interactions in the interview process can yield the results either side wants. Yes, a resume can make claims of experience and expertise. And Yes, assessments and use of technology can provide an indication of competency. But I can't see at this time how tech can assess for cultural fit and "vibe" of a person and their nuances (e.g. body language, interpreting responses, language command, etc.), more effectively than a human.

It is also de-humanizing—especially going through an impersonal process with the goal of hiring the best human for the role.
