I’ve been the dev that replaced the strong candidate. It was even worse, I was simply the guy in the meetings, the actual work was done by another dev that I translated for. The best way to prevent it on remote teams is having the actual team in the interviews. I managed up to 3 other devs while having a full time job on my end. Managing 3 daily meetings is no easy task. The missions where short and we got fired only once, but that’s because the dev who was supposed to do the work was not up to the task.
