HR Tech in the Southeast.
I don't have anything to offer in the way of specific tech skills. I simply look for someone that is inquisitive, extracts satisfaction from solving problems in elegant ways, and has a strong motive to better themselves.
These qualities, and a few others, tend to transcend tech stacks and techniques of the week.
My most successful interviews have come through chatting with a candidate in an informal setting, presenting hypothetical situations that were actually challenges we've faced in the past here and there in the conversation.
I dropped the whiteboard and puzzle thing a long time ago and I've never had better engineers.
YMMV
(I do ask to see some code beforehand)
