]]> Comment on Interview Process Too Rigid? Ye Shall Know It By The Fruits by mattvryan http://www.codingfrogs.net/2009/12/23/interview-process-too-rigid-ye-shall-know-it-by-the-fruits/comment-page-1/#comment-962 mattvryan Thu, 31 Dec 2009 23:29:23 +0000 http://www.codingfrogs.net/2009/12/23/interview-process-too-rigid-ye-shall-know-it-by-the-fruits/#comment-962 Good point, Dan. I'm not sure it is realistic to assume that you can have a perfect process that will always select every great candidate and always omit every undesirable candidate. And I don't think you were suggesting that, either; I think what you are saying is that no matter how much you refine the process, you will still have to deal with sometimes hiring people you wish you hadn't, or unknowingly screening out people that you should have hired. That's just the nature of it, but I believe you can measure how effective you are by looking at the team you've hired. Whether you meant it or not, however, I think you brought up another key point, which is that you need a conscious strategy when you hire. If you have one, you alter the process based on an evaluation of your needs and results, and not because of individual preferences. That way you'd be consciously deciding to alter the process to see what results you get, watching to see if the results change, instead of noticing after-the-fact that the results differ and, if you are lucky, being able to associate that with an unintended change in the hiring process due to someone's personal technique.

“…by different people, changes over time.”

The only flaw I can think of is when a hiring process, through participation or adjustments by different people, alter the process over time. Looking back at those I've worked with in the past, I suspect that if I tried to design a hiring process that would hire them and only them, I'm not sure if I could do it.
