In this episode, Sam is joined by Lex for a Trending Topics discussion about 37signals' hiring process — including how they evaluate whether or not a hire was a success a year later. The conversation covers everything from 37signals' one-year candidate review process, to the Hell Yeah index, specific interviewing techniques, the use of resumes and cover letters, and beyond.
At the end of the day, this conversation is just more reinforcement of what Sam and Lex always seem to come back to: which is that the long-game is the way to win in modern recruitment.
