This is really solid advise for pre-interview hiring. If you are hiring or will ever be hiring, read it. Aside from some word choice, there is only one thing I (and the author!) am not sold on:
> The Who book recommends selling this as some kind of cool, Disney-styled Fast Pass, where people can go through a step or two of your funnel and get advance notice of new listings, a shorter trip through the process, etc
This is in reference to always interviewing even when not hiring so you have a warm funnel. You are interviewing real people with real feelings and real obligations. Be very upfront with them if this is a warm-funnel interview and not a potential soon-to-be job offer. One of my worst interview experiences was after scoring at the 98th percentile of some organization's test, I was told via writing that they are not hiring now, but look forward to reaching out when a position opens up. Yeah, no thanks, I'm trying to be employed like immediately.
Side note: I really like the superscript functionality in the post.
