Senior folks who interview - who was that one candidate you’re glad you interviewed and hired?

How did that candidate turn out to be? Where are they now? Are they still working with you, or have they moved on to bigger / better / different things in life?

I’ll start.

I lead a Dev/MLOps team. I interviewed a guy who was extremely knowledagble, and his fundamentals were … extremely clear.

To say that the guy is skilled would be an understatement.

So when this guy cleared all our interview rounds, I pushed our HR folks and the Engg Manager to extend the offer.

The guy took it up, joined, and I am glad he’s with us - best cloud / linux / amazon guy we have.
