We went from a process that took weeks to get through (multiple interviews, about an hour each, with a full code day at the end) to a two step process. Talent reaches out to the candidate and has a thirty or so minute chat to make sure the candidate meets basic hiring requirements, and then we have our MINASWAN process which is a single three hour interview, including two breaks for the candidate to get off camera and catch their breath.
The participants are:
- the candidate
- a hiring manager
- between two and four developers for pairing
- an open invitation to the hiring team’s devs for a closing panel interview.
The feedback we’ve received from candidates has been overwhelmingly positive, even for those who didn’t receive an offer.
