The interviewer skills ladder for high growth companies
I noticed that the people who interview a lot don’t really get anything in return; in our quarterly engineering org meetings or whatever there’s a slide thanking the people who interviewed most. I’ve never gotten a thanks when I interviewed more than other times, nor any other indication that this is something my manager values. (And what your manager values is kind of everything, in my experience.)<p>So I almost never volunteer when they need someone to cover, don’t try to put more effort into it than necessary, and have blocks in my calendar so they don’t try to schedule when I don’t want them. It may be crucial for the company (and ethically, you owe it to candidates to treat them fairly) but it’s not treated like something they value.<p>For what it’s worth, I somehow slipped through the cracks and didn’t have to interview for quite a long time after I started. No one complained or made a note of it at all.
