Love this idea. Has always seemed amazing to me that there is almost no science behind hiring, even at respectable companies that are optimizing and testing everything else - sales, marketing, UX. Anything to get rid of the hell of infinite, indistinguishable resumes!!
Disclaimer: I have a friend at the company. But I am a big fan of what they do, apart from that, and think this analysis is very smart.
- mtmail 11y agoDo you work at this company? I'm asking because your account is two years old with four comments. Two comments a couple of days ago at the same article of the same author (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11127360 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11127360) and now today, both praising the concept.
- burgessaccount 11y agoNo, I don't, actually! (I'm a writer). I have a friend at the company though, so you're right - I follow and support their news. So yes, I'm totally biased, but I'm also a big believer in what they do. Will add a disclaimer to my comment.
