Ask HN: Tech Hiring – Skills or Capabilities?
2 by goostah | 2 comments on Hacker News.
Non tech person here interested in understanding what forward thinking CTOs/CIOs/CDOs consider when hiring tech talent. Is the hiring focus on technologies studied and technologies used? Or are capabilities hiring more important? i.e. is experience with the x, y or z tech currently used in your business a non-negotiable prerequisite or is tech hiring more focused on a suite of personal and professional skills necessary to to learn and adapt to the current stack and to drive the future tech stack? I understand this is a very broad question dependent on numerous business factors but let’s consider this in the context of innovation intensive companies and CTOs looking to establish world class tech teams that build the future an leave an impact.
