How many years of experience before resumes and interviews don’t become so important in hiring ?
Uber ask dsa even to 15 year experienced person
Even for non IC roles? Like some engineering manager or PM?
Interviews will always be important. Even by the time you interview from CXO and VP. They’re called ‘informal chats’ but they’re still interviews.
Resumes become less important after you reach middle management I think
I agree to the first point.
What I meant in my question was, when does hiring through the normal route of multiple rounds of interviews followed by the ghosting and rejections for some minute details, finally stop ?
Never. 😁
Its magnitude is designation dependent, it existence is behaviour dependent. It is human nature that you are dealing with.
At cxo levels, less so. The further away you go from cxo levels, the more it is.
2 cases:
- You are famous
- Director+ role
In these 2 cases silent hunting happens. Only informal chat and bgv is done.
I was part of a hunt process of a director of engineering.
When u have p&l responsibility.. your name gets known in the market. Resume doesn't matter then. Hiring is done by headhunting. Initial discussion is informal over a lunch or dinner
