Great stuff, thanks again!
Just one more question (if I may)--
How do you scorecard these guys? If I find someone, who looks good on paper, comes across well during a Skype interview-- is there anything you look for, probing questions? Or can you only know by giving them a 2-4 week trial run?
- smt88 12y agoI've never found a reliable way to identify a good developer vs a bad one. At an individual level, you ideally want someone who has written an entire application many times. With shops, you often get junior guys/girls who have only written modules to fit into other people's architecture. How to find, afford, hire, and retain tech talent is probably the hardest and most common problem for startups, and there's nothing close to a repeatable, universal solution.
