i am right now preparing to fill two positions, and i am looking to interview at least half a dozen people maybe more. due to my schedule i can't really interview more than one per day, so this is going to take a week or two.

i do want the opinions of the people already on my team, because a big part of the interview process is to find out how well they work together. for me hiring is a team decision, not a top down mandate. so yes, all of my software engineers will be doing interviews. there is no way around it.

on the other hand i agree with you. these rounds of interviews should not happen to often. if our team grows, i expect to add two more positions every quarter. (i don't know how realistic this is, but this just to give you an idea of how much interviewing workload i expect.)
