| IMO interviewing is the biggest bottleneck and if interviewing was decoupled from hiring then it wouldn't be a problem. But this requires a Guild-like organization to manage interviewing/vetting and for companies to use said Guild for hiring. The companies could then do a single team culture meeting (if they wanted) before hiring. |

| I wish I could remember who, but there is a company out there who conducts tech interviews to create a pool of candidates for their customers. Pretty sure there was a post here about it, but it's lost in my ocean of unread favorites. |

| ▲ | macintux a day ago | parent [-] | | They’re outsourcing technical interviews, not the same thing as hiring. (Update: technically I would guess they're only outsourcing the first few rounds. Presumably their customers will conduct further interviews.) | | |
| ▲ | codr7 19 hours ago | parent [-] | | What if the best candidates have already been filtered out by then? | | |
| ▲ | macintux 16 hours ago | parent [-] | | Create a scalable, practical interview process where the result is reliably the best candidate, and you'll take over the world. At this point in my career I no longer even believe that "best candidate" is a meaningful description except perhaps for highly specialized roles. We're all stumbling blindly in the dark. |
