Hire Like a Boss: How to be Effective in Technical Recruiting
Thursday, 11:00 AM EST - BEACH BREEZE
Finding the right candidate is hard, irrespective of the market conditions, and in a good labor market, it gets harder. The worst is to hire, out of urgency, a person who is not suitable. The person has to be the right fit for the team and the team in the right place for the person to thrive and be effective. Following archaic interviewing techniques often frustrates the interviewee and also does not provide for a good evaluation for the team. How can we avoid a hit-or-miss interview when hiring for a technical position?
We will discuss some techniques and practices that can help hire the right match, both for the team and the person.
