Inexperienced engineers simply don’t have the experience to make good hiring decisions. Having them being involved in the process is fine, but they should be shadowing someone more senior.

Well, most FAANGs would like to disagree. But they must all be wrong.

They clearly were right? they're all laying off 20% of people. Maybe this is what you meant and I just missed the sarcasm

I don't have data nor an opinion on this matter, but maybe most FAANGs are successful despite their hiring practice, not because of it.
