I dont understand the point of these blog posts. Is he trying to say this is how everyone should hire? Because if we all only hired based on "would I want this person to be my boss" or "is this person smarter than me" then no one would ever get their first job in the industry.

I cant help but feel like this isnt even how this guy actually hires. This feels like a post intended to gain linkedin clout or something.

Edit:

I feel like it's worth noting that this guy is "Chairman of the Board" at his company and previously "CEO." So his expectation is that everyone he hires who is presumably paid less than him be more talented than him. What does he think this blog post communicates to potential hires?
