I have a very simple hiring process. I describe the product, the work, the gaps. I ask them what their interests are. We find where the interests align with our gaps. If there is no alignment, we simply don't move forward. I tell them the compensation. They accept or reject.
Takes about 45 minutes. Pretty simple, the goal is to make sure that they want to do the work that we need done, and that they feel prepared to do so.
So far so good.

- staticassertion 6y agoWe just talk about the work. I don't test them, that's a waste of everyone's time.
- travisjungroth 6y agoYou can’t have possibly described your whole process. How do you get these candidates in the room? Does everyone who applies get an interview? And how do you decide between candidates? If it’s as you described, it sounds like it’s “first come first serve”.
- staticassertion 6y agoI just reach out. We're small. At scale I would still prefer to primarily base recruiting on referrals. Yeah, first come first serve.
