We hire folks who have either a CompSci background or "skillz". If you can walk the walk a piece of paper is just signaling. At 2600hz we have folks with Masters Degrees and folks who learned to code the hard way, but it's important to understand that it's easier to start with a foundation and build than it is to start from scratch. That being said, old habits die hard and it can be difficult to unlearn them. Ultimately, referrals are almost always the best source of candidates. The best way to interview is with a conversation. You can learn just about everything you want to know if you ask the right questions.
