StaffEng runs an interview format and publishes roughly every 14 days. Signals we read: interview language in episodes; interview framing in show description. Pitch a specific episode idea rather than a description of yourself, reference an episode you have actually heard, and lead with one checkable proof point. Shows at this cadence typically book two to six weeks out.
