I personally think outsourcing hiring is the worst idea ever, and completely lose confidence in companies that do.

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.)

  • What if the best candidates have already been filtered out by then?

    • 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.
