I've seen dozens of articles about how Google, Amazon and other large tech companies hire the best. It's a terrible assumption that these tech giants hire the best, they simply can't be picky with their hiring, they need to grow teams to keep up with progress, and replace the members who are leaving. They need to hire quickly, so they refine their hiring process to get qualified candidates, but not the best candidates out there. Sure, they might eventually hire some really good people, but the majority can't be held to a hire standard.
- piva00 11y agoI think a better way to see is that they must be really "efficient" on hiring, even though these companies need a lot of people hired quickly they try to hire the "best possible" with those constraints. So not the best but the best possible for a given timeframe and position. I don't know how much sense this make outside of my head but that's how I see it, they had to "scale" the process and it kinda works.
