Smart and Gets Things Done

Ricardo Parro

If you are recruiting IT people this is the book for you.

Nikolay Bachiyski

A lot of common-sense explained and a lot of insight how to approach hiring and motivating developers.

Adding a management chapter to a hiring book was strange, but the strategies and insights were very well explained, so it was interesting and worth it.

A lot of the examples are a bit outdated, don't take some of the advice literally.

All in all a great book, it's short, too.
