One on one, with several different "ones" from our side, sequentially, then a small group, usually 4, including the candidate, who we don't think of as "3 on 1"

One on one, with several different "ones" from our side, sequentially, then a small group, usually 4, including the candidate, who we don't think of as "3 on 1".
- davidu 16y agoHow is it that not 3 on 1?
- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoBecause we get together and solve a design/implementation problem and hack around the issues. It's as close to a real issue as we can get, and the objective is to get the candidate to lose himself/herself in solving the problem with us. If they can then we get a good feel for how they work and communicate, if they can't then we put it down to interview stress. My work can be pretty stressful anyway, though, so it gives us an indication either way. If someone gets to that stage we are looking for reasons to hire them, and no longer looking for reasons to exclude them.
