Show Notes

This week, we’re joined by Tigran Sloyan, CEO and co-founder of CodeSignal, for a unique conversation about skills. Tigran identifies that talent is the biggest problem humanity has to solve — and how we identify and assess skills today is broken.

He founded CodeSignal, a leading technical interview and assessment platform to help companies go “Beyond the Noise” with early-stage assessments, technical screens, and live coding interviews.

He shares how to mitigate bias in assessments, balancing hiring for demonstrated skills vs. ability to learn and grow, and the importance of anchoring to hard skills.

 

Tigran is also a frequent industry keynote, a TED speaker, and a thought leader in the technical hiring industry, commenting on trends in talent acquisition, diversity, and innovation. Follow Tigran on LinkedIn to follow along: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tigransloyan.
