So this means the interview candidate has to download and run your program? Does that not open a whole host of problems in itself?
What if your application opens the candidates computer up to vulnerabilities?
What if the the candidate only has a Linux OS?
What if the tools your detecting change? The creator has already said he's going to randomize the process name. He will randomize that other metadata eventually too.
I think your solution just becomes a cat and mouse chase where the cat kindly requests the mouse to run arbitrary code in order for the cat to make sure the mouse doesn't cheat. The release of interview coder is wonderful because it breaks the old way of interviewing and forces it to keep up with emerging technology.
A better solution to this problem is to do heuristic based detection with external validation. For example, give the candidate a realistic problem (from the actual job without leaking information), ask about previous experience in casual conversations to see if they know what they are talking about, hold an onsite to check for technical coding skills, get references from previous managers who can vouch for them and their work they've done.
That is at least until AGI comes out, then were all cooked 💀.
