Software companies should develop methods to hire these great developers.  In Joel on Hiring, software developer and entrepreneur Joel Spolsky reveals his methods for finding great candidates for jobs at his company as well as for sorting resumes, interviewing, and assessing people by phone.

Most programmers fear of user interface (UI) programming comes from their fear of doing UI design.  They think that UI design is like graphic design--the mysterious process by which creative, latte-drinking, all-black-wearing people produce cool-looking, artistic pieces.  Most programmers see themselves as analytic, logical thinkers instead--strong at reasoning, weak on artistic judgment, and incapable of doing UI design. In this brilliantly readable book, author Joel Spolsky proposes simple, logical rules that can be applied without any artistic talent to improve any user interface, from traditional GUI applications to websites to consumer electronics.  Spolskys primary axiom, the importance of bringing the program model in line with the user model, is both rational and simple. In a fun and entertaining way, Spolky make user interface design easy for programmers to grasp.  After reading User Interface Design for Programmers, youll know how to design interfaces with the user in mind.  Youll learn the important principles that underlie all good UI design, and youll learn how to perform usability testing that works.
