Many candidates think they need to find someone currently at Slack to “get their foot in the door.” Rest assured this is not the case; in fact most of our hires have come from people who have applied via our careers page. We take all applications seriously. We care deeply about diversity at Slack and when you only hire from your current employees’ networks, you tend to get a homogenous set of candidates.
Kind of, the opposite of how Google hires. I wonder which one is the right approach.
