Tutorial: Your hiring Process is broken, how to fix it

Arguably the most important skill an engineering manager can learn right now is how to attract, hire and retain the best developers possible. The best managers understand that people are their most valuable asset. The paradox is they rarely have put in the work in developing their own hiring process to consistently enable them to identify and attract the best talent. This workshop will teach you a process for engineering hiring compiled from best-practices at top companies. We will address the entire technical recruiting process and will teach you tips and tricks that will enable you to get better and more efficient at each stage of your hiring. You’ll leave this tutorial will your head full of practical insights and steps you can immediately take to improve your company's hiring process as well as the inspiration to implement them effectively.
