How I Hire Programmers (Aaron Swartz's Raw Thought)

I’m fairly happy with this method. When I’ve skipped parts, I’ve ended up with bad hires who eventually had to be let go. But when I’ve followed it, I’ve ended up with people I like so much so that I actually feel bad I don’t get to work with them anymore. I’m amazed that so many companies use such silly hiring methods instead.

The interview process described is similar to the one used by the company which got me my first job in IT over ten years ago. It works ;-)
