For instance,
DO: Consult somebody on your actual position requirements
First and foremost, if you’re inexperienced in hiring technical talent, it helps to go and find somebody who is experienced to nut out the position description. Often, what we think are the requirements are not what they seem and talking to another developer or technical recruiter can help distinguish whether or not you’re making any unfounded assumptions about the role, overcomplicating the PD or even oversimplifying it. Getting a clear understanding of questions like:
What language skillset/s is required?
What level of seniority is required (i.e. junior, mid, senior developer)?
What development methodology will be used (if working with teams)?
…and many other questions will help ensure you’re pre-qualifying your applicants (and not scare off the good ones through ambiguous expectations either!)
