Episode notes

I have always found that it becomes very difficult for the industry to understand how to assess very junior people. It's tougher when you're fresh, because you don't have that experience. I think a lot of people on their first job want that carean feeding. They want to feel supported. And so i think in the interview process, how are yougoing to support these people? Are you going to let somebody out into the wild and say, go work independent?

Dana Lawson, SVP of Engineering at Netlify and the human incarnation of sunshine, joins us on the podcast to share her lessons on hiring engineers and the interview process. We also spoke about the tech industry's changes in the last decade and how you can build inclusive software engineering teams.
