Look at that! And then look at contemporary hiring. A phone screen, a video interview, an on-site, another on-site, a take-home exam, psychometric testing, dowsing, crystal pendulum, and it still doesn't work better than casting lots.
- trhway 7y ago>it still doesn't work better than casting lots. i don't know about that. Using all these tools you listed the companies have been able to "hire the best, the top 1% (or 2%)" while casting the lots they would definitely not be able to do that.
- denkmoon 7y agoIs it actually true that FAANG hire the best, top 1%? Seeing the products they create, I am not convinced.
- mdorazio 7y ago> the companies have been able to "hire the best, the top 1% (or 2%)" Citation strongly needed. Having worked with a lot of big companies, I'd say Top 20% is still generous.
- trhway 7y ago1 or 20 doesnt matter - for any N>0 only one company can do "top N", not all of them who pretend to achieve that, and they wouldn't be able to pretend it if they used the random approach like the GGP suggested.
