Attend hackathons:

People that attend hackathons are usually good software developers. If you need good developers, even though you may not be able to compete with the big boys (the companies that organize these hackathons), if possible, you should still consider attending these hackathons so that you can network with these developers, and who knows, you may be able to recruit them.

Know your (and your direct reports) strength and weakness:

When you hire, remember that everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Figure these out with personal references. Then play to your employees’ strengths and complement their weaknesses by pairing them with the right counterpart. The most successful teams are built this way.
