Is it time for the resume’s reign to come to an end? Tigran Sloyan is the co-founder and CEO of CodeSignal () , a skills assessment platform used by many tech companies to hire engineers based on their engineering chops rather than their keyword-packed resumes. In this episode, Becca, Dom, and Tigran talk about how traditional resume-based hiring perpetuates biases and limits opportunities for individuals without extensive networks or prestigious credentials and how skills assessment lead to more equitable hiring. They also get into the CodeSignal team’s plans to go beyond assessment to skills development, how AI will play a role in building out these courses, and the way Tigran thinks about equitable hiring on his own team.

    So if he ended fixing cars in Armenia he’s somehow a failure, that’s what came across. Good message to mechanics, you are less than a developer.
