Would be nice to have a 6th post about how the engineering team ended up being organized, but all in all a great overview of the goals, techniques and tactics needed to make a big hiring push.
Thanks for your comment. Glad you enjoyed the series.
I did consider a 6th article looking at the longer term outcomes but decided at the time to cut it. Might have to reconsider as there seems to be good interest.
That's the bit I was interested in reading. The level of detail in the hiring process turned out to be really good. The thing that got my attention about the series, though, was "Ooh, I wonder how they handled communication and work distribution among the organisation."
