"...hiring managers are by definition experts at hiring"
Ummm, I don't think so. Many if not most companies suck at hiring. If you get hiring right, you just nailed the most important factor* to building a great company, and great companies are the exception, not the rule.
*arguably, the only factor. The rest is what the people you hired do.

What's important is that when it comes to knowing what hiring managers do and do not like to see in an applicant, they're it. And that's exactly what someone who's job hunting wants to know. They're not out to meet some Platonic ideal for the best possible candidate for XYZ position. They're just looking to get a job.
