Test and Code: 94: The real 11 reasons I don't hire you - Charity Majors

You've applied for a job, maybe lots of jobs.
Depending on the company, you've gotta get through:

• a resume review
• a coding challange
• a phone screen
• maybe another code example
• an in person interview

If you get the job, and you enjoy the work, awesome, congratulations.

If you don't get the job, it'd be really great to know why.

Sometimes it isn't because you aren't a skilled engineer.

What other reasons are there?

Well, that's what we're talking about today.

Charity Majors is the cofounder and CTO of Honeycomb.io, and we're going to talk about reasons for not hiring someone.

This is a very informative episode both for people who job hunt in the future and for hiring managers and people on the interview team.

Special Guest: Charity Majors.
