What this episode covers
This week’s episode is a great one if you or your team is focused on hiring data practitioners this year (like most teams). For EP 23, I had the chance to sit down with David Corea, senior analytics manager at CoderPad, a technical assessment software aimed at improving how we interview technical candidates. While CoderPad isn’t specific to interviewing data practitioners, it’s a great example of one of the many ways the data industry can learn from the best practices of the software engineering world. In the episode, we look at how CoderPad uses data to improve their product, how we as interviewers can minimize interview stress, how to measure learning in an organization obsessed with progress, and the importance of the five whys.
