Resume Overload? How DoSomething Screens Job Applicants and Finds the Perfect Intern in a Stack of 300 Resumes

There isn't a talent problem, but rather an interesting company problem - sorting through hundreds of resumes and cover letters for relatively few job openings. DoSomething.org's Director of Engineering, Desmond Morris, tackled this challenge by implementing a hiring process that involves a series of steps, including screening initial applicants, conducting phone interviews, code reviews, and face-to-face interviews. The organization used Trello to manage the hiring process, creating a board with columns for each step and cards for each candidate, which allowed team members to track progress and provide feedback in an organized and efficient manner.
