As a People Lead I look out for talented people who might be interested in joining the EE <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/who-we-are\/our-network-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">network<\/a>, so I\u2019d like to talk about some of the challenges we\u2019ve faced when looking for DevOps engineers \u2013 and how we\u2019re starting to focus on operability instead.<\/p>\n<h3>Battling DevOps<\/h3>\n<p>Over the past 5 years there\u2019s been huge demand across the IT industry for DevOps engineers, DevOps teams, and DevOps everything. Many people have responded to this by adding DevOps to the dreaded bunch of keywords on their CV, and it\u2019s made DevOps recruitment very difficult.<\/p>\n<p>The diagram below\u00a0shows the DevOps recruitment process we&#8217;ve been following until now (not\u00a0exhaustively \u2013 just our general guidelines):<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4571 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Previous-Hiring-Process.jpg\" alt=\"Previous hiring process\" width=\"900\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Previous-Hiring-Process.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Previous-Hiring-Process-300x92.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Previous-Hiring-Process-768x235.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><br \/>\nUsing this process, we\u2019ve connected with DevOps people who are experienced in operating complex production systems, and it\u2019s been great to have them join the EE network. However, we\u2019ve also experienced two major problems:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Too many search results:<\/strong> our online searches are frontloaded with the \u201cDevOps\u201d keyword plus additional keywords such as \u201cinfrastructure as code\u201d, so there\u2019s always a lot of potential candidates with those buzzwords to wade through.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Too slow to find a mismatch:<\/strong> our first look at a candidate\u2019s abilities comes during the pair coding test, so we often don\u2019t find a mismatch between Equal Experts and a candidate until the candidate comes into the office.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These problems have caused us to burn a lot of time. So to find the right candidates with the requisite experience and skills, we\u2019re changing the way we work. That starts with understanding what we\u2019re actually looking for.<\/p>\n<h3>What we\u2019re looking for<\/h3>\n<p>Our ethos is to recruit the best technologists in their field \u2013 and avoid becoming lost in keywords, tools, frameworks, libraries, etc. It\u2019s not about delving into the world of LinkedIn, StackOverflow, and GitHub profiles. It\u2019s about looking for people who can work in a team to deliver innovative solutions for hard problems.<\/p>\n<p>Dan\u2019s earlier post on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/blog\/our-thinking\/value-operability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">value of operability<\/a> highlights that we\u2019ve been using DevOps as a proxy for important skills we\u2019ve not put a name to before. We\u2019re looking for people who write unit tests for their infrastructure scripts, create telemetry platforms that are easy to use, and collaborate with developers on resilient architectures. We\u2019re looking for people who can build and operate production systems at scale, and help clients understand how operational requirements contribute to their business problems.<\/p>\n<p>In short, we\u2019re looking for operability engineers &#8211; but we need to respect the market, at least for now. So we\u2019ll be looking for DevOps\/Operability Engineers from here on.<\/p>\n<h3>Looking for DevOps\/Operability Engineers<\/h3>\n<p>Dan\u2019s post described how clients often equate DevOps with Infrastructure As Code. He also listed Requirements, Telemetry, Deployment Health, Shared On-Call, and Post-Mortems as other essential characteristics of operability.<\/p>\n<p>This gives us a pathway to shift our recruitment process from DevOps towards operability. In future, we\u2019ll be approaching it as follows:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4572 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/New-Hiring-Process.jpg\" alt=\"New hiring process\" width=\"900\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/New-Hiring-Process.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/New-Hiring-Process-300x92.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.equalexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/New-Hiring-Process-768x235.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/>\n<p>This highlights several changes we\u2019re going to make in our recruitment process:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>When we look for candidates, we\u2019re going to look beyond keywords such as \u201cDevOps\u201d and \u201cInfrastructure as Code\u201d. That means looking for skills such as \u201cMonitoring\u201d and \u201cAlerting\u201d with tools such as Prometheus and PagerDuty<\/li>\n<li>When we talk with candidates, we\u2019re going to home in on how they\u2019ve collaborated on production systems in the past. We\u2019re big believers in collaboration, and candidates that have worked with developers, testers, and business people to deliver operational requirements will stand out.<\/li>\n<li>When we test candidates, we\u2019re going to add an unattended coding test. This will help us to concentrate on candidates experienced in coding infrastructure, telemetry, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This means going against the grain. Right now the IT industry is all about DevOps, but we\u2019re far more interested in finding good candidates experienced in modern operability practices.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, the EE network of organisational expertise and shared experiences will be enormously helpful to us. We\u2019ll be able to work with our Associates to look for candidates by referral. And we\u2019ll stay in touch with any candidates who are unsuccessful or under contract elsewhere; we\u2019re looking to build a community for the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Our mission is to make Equal Experts the first place the best operability engineers come to when looking for something new. It\u2019s going to take time \u2013 but I think this approach is a big step in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p><em>This is the fourth article in our multi-author series \u201cEveryone Does Continuous Delivery\u201d, which aims to explore DevOps and Continuous Delivery \u2013 and how they affect our culture and work.
