Cool article. Once the starter project is done, what are the main criteria you apply to make a hire/no-hire decision? Does the hiring manager make the decision alone, or does the team debate the person?

Have you found any skills that are harder to evaluate through starter projects than through traditional whiteboard interviews?

Hiring comes down to the team or employees that have talked to the candidate. Everyone gives their feedback and a number rating to the hiring manager. Its up to the hiring manager to then take that info and know whether its a unanimous yes or if there's reservations from individuals and pass.
