Ask HN: Whom do you prefer generalist or specialist?

1 pointmohit23iitk2 comments

Depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

For example, I am searching for software developers for my company and I can choose either candidate - Generalist (Who knows little about PHP, JAVA, JAVASCRIPT, and PYTHON) or Specialists (Any One Technology).

Whom would you prefer and why?
