we've hired 100% of our team from our github contributors: 1. can they scope a good issue? 2. can they code a good pr? 3. can they go through a good code review? 4. can they repeat the above a few times? https://t.co/J7UoQcaB5n

Action >>> words. It just makes too much sense to hire that way. Though it also requires a commitment to opensource that for some companies is hard to quantify and therefore gets thrown out

Not everyone's contributions are in a public source repo though. I interviewed a bunch of entitled RS applicants while at Google who had this kind of attitude about coding interviews; usually these types you don't want to hire anyway. We still hired many brilliant theoriticians who never wrote "real" code prior.

also hitting the same requirements but noticed the next: - some devs "download" others projects, hit the "initial commit" and pin that in their profiles; - some are purposefully rewriting git history to replace commit authors;

How would you translate this to non-technical / marketing / ops? Curious to know how you value portfolio.

@askgina.eth what does it mean to scope a good issue?

There's trade offs for sure. Like there's a whole swath of devs that are good for your team but maybe haven't had a chance to contribute to your project. On the plus side, the peeps you hire have already done the equivalent of a job interview.
