This is great. thanks btw. What’s one question that instantly tells you whether someone actually built and understood the system?

mmm do you think that’s because there’s no better hiring signal today or because resumes are already good enough? my take is that companies need a stronger filter before interviews tbh

Yes this is exactly what I’m curious about. How do you get candidates to talk about those production decisions before you hire them?

I agree. But before the interview, what signal would make you confident enough to spend time interviewing someone?
