"Hire Doers vs Tellers". I agree with the statement, but I disagree with the method.
You can separate doers from tellers by how they talk about the work and how they (non-verbally) react to certain questions. However, separating them by creating a totally artificial and unrealistic "doing" situation, be it via role playing or coding tests, will result in a lot of false negatives.

Your distinction is interesting. If you could elaborate on what separates doers/tellers, I'd be interested in hearing.
