The author suggests to pay a candidate for the trail project, which makes it a reasonable deal for the candidate.
To do something small, you don't need to quit a job, just dedicate few evenings and weekends and earn some extra cash.
This method can be beneficial for candidates, that can get to know potential employers much better, and avoid ones that look interesting only on job ads.
- JamesVI 13y agoThe author specifically recommends hiring someone for weeks. Maybe he meant a couple of weekends, but it doesn't read that way. I agree that something small - evenings and weekends - might work. Of course, you and your team need to be prepared to come into work at those times too, in order to make this a bidirectional experience.
