This sounds over complicated and the CTO sounds horrible.
The dev team hiring the engineers should gather together and write some specs. The leader should post the job online and then the team should deliberate on each candidate.
Everything else sounds like a waste of time.
- jussij 12y agoI agree. Surely someone in the group looking to hire a new developer has some idea as to what skills would be beneficial. For example: Skill Level (pick one): Junior, Mid Level, Senior Language (pick one or more): C, C++, C#, D, Go, SQL, PHP, Java, Ruby, Perl, Python, Rust This isn't rocket science!
- GordyMD 12y agoCTO of Workshape.io here. My co-founder Hung was painting a rather extreme picture, but the picture he does paint is a reasonable portrayal of a possible reality. Not all CTOs are good at hiring/writing an effective job description (what is an effective job description?). And it does stand to reason, like with many other things, that people use other job descriptions as inspiration.
