I think most people are bad interviewers, including me. I’ve missed a bunch, and I think the core reason for that actually isn’t the interview; it’s the interviewees. Interviewees are so good at interviewing. ... I think everyone, including me, overvalues their ability to select talent in the interview process. I see that as overconfidence.

“The strategy required to find a great opportunity (lots of saying yes and exploring widely) is different from the strategy required to make the most of a great opportunity (lots of saying no and remaining focused).”

Good input=good output: to be a great writer, we must be great readers. I’ve found that the quality of the texts I read influences the quality of the writing I produce.
