10 years ago all interviews were in person. With the pandemic they all went 100% remote. We proved that 100% remote positions can work and so there is temptation to continue doing 100% remote interviews for people that will be working remote anyway.
Though we have been burned by someone we believe (but cannot prove) was 100% remote and working two jobs at the same time (they were laid off in a recent downsizing before we could get enough evidence, but they didn't seem as productive as we would expect). So I expect even if you apply for a 100% remote position you will need to do one round of interviews onsite. (though who knows if this will protect us)
Wow, I guess my experiences are way unusual! Very interesting. Companies are really playing with fire by expecting to hire (either for remote or onsite work) 100% over the phone and videoconferencing.
