What things do you think are a good one indicator/signal? Thinking on projects, you can always just copy-paste and glue together chunks of code from the internet, or just follow through someone else tutorial line by line,etc.
I actually pretty much find resumes useless. At best they don’t tell you much and at worst they can be just straight up lies. Degree and job pedigree are weak signals for success. Years of experience is another fairly weak signal- it doesn’t necessarily imply learning.https://twitter.com/chipro/status/1177479817907671040 …

Technical: getting non-trivial code from them somehow that involves having to manage complexity as opposed to just solving a puzzle or brain teaser. The Rest: Interpersonal skills, openness to learning/being wrong, tenacity- all hard to assess but important.

In the research I've seen there's zero correlation between years of experience and speed and correctness of coding.

This is definitely consistent with my experience over the years.

In my experience a 5 minute conversation about what someone is interested in beats any resume. The best person I ever interviewed had almost no relevant experience on their resume, but when you spoke to her it was clear shes 100 times better than almost anyone else we interviewed
