Last time I got good, actionable advice was from Journey of the Software Professional by Luke Hohmann. Covered stuff like self-selecting teams, assemblying a team with complimentary skills, and so on.
Or maybe there's some secret manual for interviewing as hazing and torture? Like the CIA's simple sabotage field manual?
- fmajid 3y agoGoogle used to be notorious for hiring only based on the prestige of the candidate's alma mater and gotcha interviews with Fermi questions or the kind where the interviewer is trying to show his superiority, like an adolescent pissing match. But they invested in researching the factors that best predict success and ended up with two: IQ tests and highly structured interviews. Everything else was worse than useless. https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/future-of-marketing/management-and-culture/structured-interviewing/ https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/future-of-marketing/manageme...
