Tolerance Is Not A Christian Virtue


Boston, you're going to love this one 🦞 The Red Sox will be serving "Lobstah Poutine" at Fenway Park this year! This ballpark food features crispy fries, lobster meat, clam chowder and crispy bacon all served in a custom lobster boat 🤤 (Via: @Aramark)

At @Dune we did 300 candidate interviews in March. A massive effort from our < 10 hiring managers. Here is some of the stuff we do to ensure we find exceptional candidates: - All interviews scored 1-4. Deliberately no "middle score". At least one interviewer needs to give a 4/4 and be a champion for the candidate. Straight 3's will not yield an offer. We are after exceptional people. We think of the Dune team as a pro sports team and if you want to win you need someone exceptional in every position. Good enough is not good enough, and if there is doubt there is no doubt. - We check for AI fluency. If you are not hands on AImaxxxing and exploring how AI changes your domain we won't hire you. - Me or Mats Olsen always do the last interview to ensure everyone candidate is exceptional and adhere to the Dune's values. We will absolutely disqualify technically exceptional people based on culture/values mismatch. If you don't want to work hard or have low integrity you simply can't join Dune. - We are absolutely uncompromising on comprehensive reference checks. This is incredibly important. Not just doing the checks but pushing hard, asking though questions and drill deep into any cracks. If anything seems fishy or off we run for the hills. We have several times dropped giving an offer to candidates we thought we would due to things feeling off with references. If this sounds like a system you would pass with flying colors we are hiring for backend/analytics/platform/data engineers, account executives and product marketing manager. Bonus points if you've worked with enterprise data products in the past. Link below, lfg!
