Absorb LMS (learning management system) | Canada (remote) | Full-time | https://www.absorblms.com/

Howdy, I'm looking for our next Software Development Team Lead. We have a beautiful (mostly empty) office in Calgary but are remote-first. Your team members are located from Vancouver to Quebec - for now; we're growing so maybe NFLD soon?

This person will lead our growing AI/ML team, but they are first an experienced team lead (you have managed people before) with significant python development experience. You can be creative with how you demonstrate your skills, experience and passion for AI/ML, and you'll get a chance to grow in these areas working with our strong technical team.

if you're interested check out the posting, and if you apply I'd appreciate mentioning you found out about this on HN (long-time participant but first time as a hiring manager in this pool of talent). Thanks for your interest!

I think you need to look into your hiring portal. I have actually applied to this position (or a position with the exact same description) many months ago. Never heard anything. Which is strange since I have decades of video encoding, video player, c++, and cross platform development experience at both startups and FANG.

For what it's worth, I interviewed for a position similar to this at Disney+ a few years ago (unsure if it's the exact same one since it's been so long), and after being given a coding challenge that they agreed I could turn in after a week and an email from someone I was supposed to ask questions to, I didn't get any responses from them whatsoever until less than 24 hours before the supposed turn-in. (Among the questions I asked were clarifications of very basic things like "Am I supposed to be getting 404 errors when trying to query the links returned by the API the instructions say I should be rendering results from, or is there an issue with your backend?" After having spent essentially two full days over the weekend on it, I emailed the night before we had agreed I'd complete the challenge to say that I wasn't interested in continuing with the interview process, and the next day I finally received a response saying something along the lines of "oops, the engineer we said would answer your questions was on vacation, here's the email of a different one".

Obviously that's just one data point, but I wouldn't be shocked if their hiring portal worked fine and this is just how their recruiting works.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

If you have that many candidates where you can't even answer them, Why are you here asking for more? EDIT: I’m sure you have a dozen great candidates in your resume pile you reject for a type-o or an unknown school, or something. Do a second pass.

and as much as hiring is "broken" the part of the process that works well is letting people out of it without ghosting them. Even dinosaurs like ADP software get that part right.
