How #redgate hired 10 geeks in five weeks

In April, I wrote:

Right now, we’re running a “Ten geeks in five weeks” project. The major thing that’s holding back Red Gate’s growth is our struggle to hire great people. So Alice, Mark and Nick are going to hire ten people over the next five (now four) weeks. I’m not entirely sure how they’re going to do it. I know that iPads are involved. I think they’re handing them out to people who come for interview

The weeks have passed. The geeks have been hired. The video has been made. Enjoy.
