Unfortunately it hasn't completely changed. Despite my best efforts it still happens at my company's interviews. We ask candidates to prepare a presentation. I'm convinced that we've lost lots of great people because of it.
Why the hell should a person who you're hiring to sit in a corner with their headphones on need good presentation skills?
