I would add two things if I may. The interview process, and your potential list of candidates starts the minute the job ad is posted, run the ad through a gender decoder like gender-decoder.katmatfield.com and remember what you say about culture may encourage some people apply over others eg if you advertise gin Fridays you may deter non drinkers, advertise your games consoles and deter more senior/ non cis men candidates
Secondly respect the candidates, don't let them leave thinking that was awful, if they suffer from imposter syndrome they may never try to apply for another job again. Leaving them feeling helpless and stuck in current job.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
This is great thank you.
