It's worth emphasizing, as a hiring manager: By the time you're in an interview, I want to hire you. I'm sitting there hoping to write "Strong hire" on my feedback form.
- aaronharnly 6y agoI think this is true as a hiring manager, but isn't necessarily true for an interviewer, who may be a senior engineer applying a very strong filter to the "who would I want on my team" test.
- dan_quixote 6y agoSame. If someone makes it that far, I (and several others) have already decided that they stand out. So I'm secretly rooting for them the moment the interview starts.
- afterburner 6y agoUh, unless you saw a better candidate earlier in the day/week.
- x0x0 6y agoI'm senior enough that if I rate two people strong hire, I'm capable of getting more budget. This has in fact happened recently -- we couldn't decide between two great candidates, so we offered and hired both.
- bananaface 6y agoThat depends on the size of the company, no?
- cutemonster 6y agoYes, and in some cases, the company needs one person now, and another one a bit later. Then can be nice to have a list of people who did well, to contact again
