Since I have been working in the HR industry I can understand the problem of hiring technical person specially developer when you are non technical.. I noticed that other recruiters also having problems to hire technical person..

I am in search of some kind of solution that we can use to filter out the right candidates when you have numbers of CVs for the technical position. I found the assessment techniques on some job posting sites (indeed) where they show the assessment after apply for job is this really helpful and how we can use them?

I thought nowadays they just filter out anyone who is white and male, then roll the dice on whatever diversity hire remains Laughing

I found some sites interviewmocha.com, hiringuru.com, hackerrank.com, codility.com etc... which helps recruiters to hire technical staff but seems they are not for small companies that don't hire frequently.

Do you think that really helpful to shortlist candidate or they way you say is all matter Razz

Thanks

Take a technically skilled person with you into the interview. Headhunters get a fuckton money for each successful person they forward to a company. So the expectation would be that the headhunter truly knows who the right person is for a job. But based on the way I am being contacted by headhunters is that they just surf around on all sorts of pages like linkedin, xing etc and just enter keywords and add a template text. Basically even lazier than realtors in the times of online real estate platforms Laughing

Yeah, like the retard 5 years back that set me up on a programming interview after skimming CV which had "automation/robotics/electronics" as the main areas of interest Rolling Eyes
Didn't tell him he was an idiot to his face, but told him that I wasn't interested in programming even if there was a bit of that on my CV.
"What would be the point, running against mens that are coding for years?"
Answer: "Oh you won't be running against anyone in the 2nd interview, it will still be individual."

That's not even what... nevermind Laughing Facepalm

I tried Codility and found it good to assess candidates specially if you are looking for a developer and have no expertise you can use it to shortlist good profiles.
