How I went from failing every interview to a job at Amazon

From the management perspective, how else would you handle this? I.e. Allocation of resources? It's very difficult to reason about global resource allocation.

In addition how do you deal with resource mapping and best fit during allocation?

I think the multi-level allocation model works better than anything anyone else has suggested.

When I am a manager I will develop my people. I will hire them by getting to know them. I will encourage conference attendance and networking as well as outreach to study groups. Let's lift each other up and build welcoming communities of practice. Not sure what your reference to multi-level allocation model means.

I'm not sure conference attendance does anything worthwhile. It doesn't harm, but in my experience conference attendance only serves to pique interest in new/different technologies, not in actually learning it.
