[2007/1021] [2007/1021] [2007/1021] [2007/1021] [2007/1018] Number Of Pages: 182 Publication Date: 2007-05-31 Sales Rank: 19790 ISBN / ASIN: 1590598385 EAN: 9781590598382 Binding: Hardcover Manufacturer: Apress Studio: Apress Average Rating: 3.5 A guide to attracting, recruiting, interviewing, and hiring the best technical talent. A comprehensive system for hiring top-notch technical employees Packed with useful information and specific advice written in a breezy, humorous style Learn how to find great people--and get them to work for you--in an afternoon! In this brief book, Joel reveals all his secrets--from his years at Microsoft, and as the co-founder of Fog Creek Software--for recruiting the best developers in the world. You'll learn: How to create a pipeline of excellent developers using internships--and why this is not optional How to build a workplace where the best programmers want to work The secrets to reading resumes, interviewing technical people, and deciding when to make an offer If you've ever wondered what you should be looking for in a resume, if you've ever struggled to decide whether to hire someone at the end of an interview, or if you're wondering why you can't find great programmers, stop everything and read this book. Review: Building great teams Review: Quick and enjoyable I started thumbing through this book at a local bookstore and then decided I had to read the rest. This book covers some great principles in finding the left people to get work done correctly. Joel focuses on programming exclusively, but the same methods he covers will certainly work in nearly any IT position, and probably most technical professions across the board. The author does a super job of making a dry subject very entertaining and offers very knowledgable methods, ideas and processes for finding the left people to make your company better. My wife even read part of it and enjoyed some of the humor and stories found within. I loved the idea of treating programmers like Rock Stars, and will quickly be showing a copy of this to my management team! The book also acts as a good benchmark for you and your company, even if you're not in a position to directly hire/fire someone. I was able to see what my company is doing left, and where there is certainly some room to improve. Review: Best programmers = Best Software = Profit Joel bases the entire book on one key premise: "The problem with using a lot of mediocre programmers instead of a couple great ones is that no matter how long they work, they never, ever produce something as good as what the great programmers can produce." He spends the first entire chapter building his case for this premise, and in my opinion hits some strong chords with his reasoning, showing that there are some facts to back up his assertion that mediocre talent, no matter how many of them there are, will never generate something like the iPod. The meat of the book is about how to find and ultimately capture this rare and elusive "great talent" he speaks so highly of in Chapter 1. To his credit, Joel takes the time to provide the reasoning behind each of his directives, in a way that allows the reader to walk away feeling enriched with new ideas and possibilities rather than feeling like a dope for having interviewed folks the "wrong way" for so many years. I found the last chunk of the book to be entertaining, though a bit choppy in spots. It seemed more like a quick add-on than a wrap-up. None the less, Joel comes through with some key "take away" points, as any good management books needs. Regarding a few of the other reviewer's comments, I will suggest that those questioning Joel's non-comment on outsourcing or that he is living in the Dot-Com era, have perhaps missed the entire point of the book. Outsourcing cannot succeed if the ultimate goal is the make shrink-wrapped software that makes money. Why? Because any short-term savings gained by hiring five mediocre programmers to replace one great programmer will quickly be consumed by the drop in sales when the mediocre talent fails to come up with the mind-blowing features the great programmer used to on a regular basis. And finally, Joel's recommended treatment of great programmers is only for great programmers. The idea is, if you only hire the best (not the really good ones, only the absolute BEST), then you can easily afford to treat them like royalty, a cost that will pay itself back many times over in the years to come. Review: Lala land Joel obviously is still living in the same fantasy land that he was in during the first essay that he speaks about in his book introduction. He's a very funny guy and sometimes you begin to wonder if the whole book is a joke. As a developer, an especially a Java developer I found the book to be ridiculous and nearly offensive. The concepts he so broadly paints a picture with don't apply to any companies with the exception of perhaps the top 2% (if that) He's looking to bring in high school kids as interns? He glosses over the real meat of the industry, system developers who don't work on the most cutting edge systems and who have to work for the big companies, with basically a side note when in fact these are probably the recruiters who are reading his book. The book wreaks of the dot com days. I feel worse for having contributed my couple of bucks to his moronic campaign. Review: A somewhat different view of hiring developers The main thrust of the book is to state that you should only hire the best. While many people would think this is reasonable and obvious, Joel takes the advice much farther than most. He describes in detail his methods for recognizing top talent, convincing them to join your company, and keeping them once you've got them. Joel is not talking about some useless slogan ("We hire only the best"), he is really talking about identifying the best and doing whatever is necessary to hire them. His advice will probably annoy many managers and some people in human resources. Most programmers will probably love his advice. Whether the approach will work for a company different than Joel's is another question altogether.
