You read the candidates CV, you ask them what they last worked on, ask them why they want to work at your company, if they are okay with the posted salary range. Maybe have them write a short bit of code to make sure they aren't totally bullshitting you.
That takes about one or two hours.
Then you think about it, and if you want to hire them send them an offer the next day.
First 3 months of the contract is trial period (you can fire them without severance in the trial period if it doesn't work out).
Not sure why you need weeks to evaluate a candidate, either they are a fit or not.
- jvvw 4y agoAgree - most of the interviews I have had have been 1-2 hours plus some sort of coding test or similar. I guess if you are trying to recruit people already in a job, you can't get away with that much more than that - unless the job is super-amazing, you can expect people to take a day off work but not more than that. I don't know that longer interviews etc. would actually have told the interviewers massively more about me, perhaps a tiny bit more but not a lot.
