I find it insane that HR is interfering with engineering hiring.
In all my jobs we ALWAYS sidestepped HR to do any form of hiring, even though we used recruiters which had their own ways of sourcing candidates (that was mainly useful to get candidates of a certain race and gender to fill in diversity quotas).
The CTO has the budget and agrees benefits with HR. After that the job post and ways of sourcing candidates is through the engineering team.
Once we do an offer, the ball is back to HR and they finalise the contract / bureaucracy.
