Mo Bhende, co-founder and CEO of Karat, discusses the importance of hiring and interviewing in the tech industry. He shares his journey from working at Microsoft to starting Karat and explains how the company has become the world's largest interviewing platform.
Mo emphasizes the need for business leaders to be involved in the hiring process and highlights the challenges of selecting the right talent in a competitive market. He also discusses the global hiring of tech talent and the role of generative AI in recruiting.
Episode Highlights:
- Hiring and interviewing are critical for the success of a business, especially in the tech industry.
- Just because someone is a skilled professional doesn't mean they are a good interviewer.
- There is a shortage of engineers in the market, making it challenging to find and hire top talent.
- Diversifying tech talent globally can provide access to a larger pool of skilled engineers.
- AI can assist in the hiring process, but it should be used in conjunction with human judgment and expertise.
