do you really think it's because he doesn't understand subnetting? that's just wild to me, it's one of the most fundamental aspects of IPv4 address management

scary


He seems to be able to figure out subnetting on his own, but he clearly doesn't know when to use a private subnet vs when to use a public one... Nor does he know why, even from a routing perspective,why you shouldn't just use some random public subnet locally...

He's gonna crash and burn quick if I leave and they have him try to run the network on his own

Ah, gotcha. That's actually... more frightening, because it means he knows enough to be dangerous, without constant supervision. Yikes.

You're blaming yourself on this.
You didn't get to interview him so you have zero responsibility here.
A resume can easily be filled with lies. It's why interviews are set up to make sure the person has the right skills. You're clearly the only person there who could have judged that and you didn't get to. So fuck 'em.

I don't usually agree with Brutal, but he's on the nose on this one. You didn't interview him, you just glanced at his resume and gave your opinion based on that. Resumes are pieces of paper, nothing more.

If someone raises a stink, tell them you want to partake in the interview, even if you were to be a second interview step to test their knowledge. Leverage your position, dude. Let them know, professionally, that you would like input on the candidates for positions contracted out, even if just as an observor.
