This is a great question. Guess OPs approach only works if they are hiring someone much more junior than themselves so that experience trumps code/domain familiarity.
- gkoberger 6y agoNot at all! I’m pretty experienced, but most people I interview or hire are much better engineers than me! Imagine you’re taking a class on a topic you don’t know. You can tell pretty quickly from how the instructor talks and explains something if they know what they’re talking about. It’s very similar! I’ve certainly interviewed people much more skilled than me in languages I’ve never used, and still got a pretty great sense of their expertise.
