Ask HN: As an interviewer, how do you prepare for an interview?
5 by s16h | 2 comments on Hacker News.
As an interviewer , what do you do to prepare before an interview? What information/content do you usually look at? How long do you spend preparing? For example, minimally, I'd like to know the candidate's name, how to pronounce it, what I'm interviewing them for, and their most recent experience on their resume. Although it feels embarrassing to say this, on average, I don't tend to spend any longer than 5 minutes preparing.
