I work for a large corp. We used to get resumes from HR (not sure what filtering they did) and follow up with a phone screening. If that went well there was an hour interview and a panel interview. I don't think our process was the best.
Recently, hiring was overhauled. Every office that needs engineers submits a list of requirements. All interviewing is handled by a hiring panel that consists of HR and engineers with relevant experience, but who do not work on the team or with the project. The hiring panel hires people without any interaction between the team and the candidate and without any input from the team.
Basically, we sent in a posting and they send us an engineer. I'm curious to see how this plays out, though I'm not very hopeful. I think someone looked at how much money was being spent on staffing at the lower level and decided to consolidate it.
Anyone have similar experience?
- kingnothing 5y agoThis is how all of the FAANG companies hire.
- oldsklgdfth 5y agoDoes this mean the applicant doesn’t interact with the team before getting hired? This seems strange to me. I would like to interact with team members before I accept a job.
- fzil 5y agoI am not sure how it is at the more experienced levels but for new grads and juniors you apply for the company, then have a "general" interview (think leetcode, some nominal system design stuff). If you clear the bar, you proceed to some team matching stage (this where the companies start to differ). Your experience and your input is taken into account and you are matched with a team where you fit in best. Some companies have the team manager talk to the new candidate to check for fit, others have different processes.
