Ask HN: Help me find a conference talk on hiring/debugging mindset
At some point in the last 2 years I came across a conference talk, possibly on Youtube, where the speaker talked about hiring for mindsets rather than skills. If I recall correctly the speaker had some relatively well formulated questions for how to identify a person with a good debugging/troubleshooting mindset. I only vaguely remember the talk at this point so you'll have to excuse the fuzzy description.

Just remembered some more details. The speaker covers the difference in applying something akin to the scientific method vs jumping to conclusions based on previous encounters of the same/similar issues.
