As an interviewer your job is to get to know a candidate, understand their experience, and assess whether they are a good fit for your team and business in, oh, about an hour or less. That’s no small feat – in your spare time you probably leap tall buildings in a single bound.

And hiring a false positive, someone not actually qualified or who will be a poor cultural or team fit, is a very expensive mistake to correct. Wrong hires cost the company tons of money and can waste precious time for already short-staffed teams.
