Hey Soham. We have to stop meeting like this :) Yeah, scaling this stuff is hard. I do think there's a big danger in scaling it by offloading filtering powers to non-technical people because then you have to rely on proxies. Proxies aren't inherently bad, of course, but the ones we have now (school and past employment) are pretty bad, and if ultimately, we're getting things wrong more than we're getting them right, it outweighs the temptation to cut costs and time. For a company like Box with a super strong engineering brand, it's OK to have a pretty high false negative rate, of course. You can reject a lot of good people and still have a revolving door of others who want to work there. However, smaller companies often take their cues from big ones and adopt the same processes without realizing that they may not work the same way. And yes, thank you so much for calling that out. AJ had to meet the same bar as everyone else. Fortunately, he killed it.
