Hiring mistakes to avoidFor companies
| Mistake | What happens | How to avoid it |
|---|---|---|
| Treating QA as the last step only | Bugs found too late and expensive to fix | Involve QA from the planning stage |
| Hiring for manual testing only | Regression takes days before each release | Look for automation experience |
