What this trend is going to push is more contract-to-hire where companies start hiring people as contractors for 1 month and let go who is not as expected. This exists today and I always refused to play the game. But I guess companies can either go back to in person interview or other methods.

The only candidates who would accept such an abusive offer are those who are desperate and don't already have a decent job. So it can sort of work to put butts in seats but you're already filtering out many of the best candidates.

> contract-to-hire

I suspect that in California (and probably much of the rest of the US), a person on the contract phase of contract-to-hire could make a good legal case that they are actually an employee.

Would honestly prefer this to an overly burdensome interview process.
