This episode's question is:

As a team lead, what do you look for when interviewing developers, or perhaps other roles as well. I feel like resumes can be BS-ish, it's easier to have actual things to show. Do open source contributions appeal to you? Or just personal projects? Current apps/scripts/whatever in the field the developer is interviewing for? Do you care if they go to conferences or if they speak at them? Personal hobbies?
