You need to make an interview process that reflects the work they will actually be doing. You need to answer 4 questions: - Are they smart? - Can they get shit done? - Are they passionate about their work? - Are they an asshole? For programmers we solve this with the following: - Phone Screen - Coding Challenge (offline, on their time, reviewed by team) - Design Challenge (take loose requirements, build UI, models, and project plan) - Project Presentation (talk about an awesome project you did in detail) - Pair Programming (Work directly with an engineer to solve a simple coding challenge)
