I did a fair chunk of interviews when I was just a dev. I loved it, and I took it very seriously in terms of vetting programming skill and practices. I also felt good offloading that burden from a good manager.

It was win-win for our team. YMMV

What were your success rates compared to other teams who depended more on the manager for hiring? How often did your company fire people for poor performance?

Sorry, didn't mean these to come off so pointed, just super curious is all, not trying a gotcha or anything.
