Ask HNs: Who would you hire?
We interviewed a couple of guys: One guy who seems average to slightly above average guy.
Another guy appears to be rockstar, but seems like he is going to be hard to work with it. He "seems" to know it all, but seems like a dick.
I am leaning toward to candidate 2, but I don't know.

- stray 11y agoI'd hire the average guy. Average is good. Assholes are bad.
- mindcrime 11y agoI'd hire the average to slightly above average guy. Let the other guy go be someone else's problem.
