We create all hardware, software and IT-Infrastructure to run our systems on our own.

When I applied, the interview process went like this: > 1st phone interview (screening) -> 2nd phone interview (technical) -> [crickets] I get it, we are all busy, but I think sending a "No, thanks" email to applicants who have spent time on your interviews isn't asking too much.

> > 1st phone interview (screening) -> 2nd phone interview (technical) -> [crickets]

I had the exact same experience, around the same time. I just assumed I was a bad fit, but it would have been nice to know why. The company seems pretty cool, from what I could tell.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Apologies,but this process feels really lame. I know that many companies do it, (like atlassian, for example) - but it feels as though one is interviewing for a slavery post. Let me explain: You hire people. People have lives. But this type of process just illustrates that you're a Corp and not really having the best interest of the people you're hiring. The reason I state this is because corporations don't give a fu…

Of course they're a 'corp', and of course they're looking after their own interests over yours. Looking after your interests is your own job, no one else's. The employer-employee relationship is partly a fight. The best you can hope is that it be a gentleman's one, with no hits under the belt, rather than an all-out brawl or backstabbing. grayfox is showing you cards that the average employer would hold back and woul…

That's a fair reply - thanks.

I still don't personally like it, but I'd say my bias is mostly that I am older and have kids...

I've been fucked over by so many companies in my 20+ years in Silicon Valley that I do not trust any HR team or "vision of a unicorn family"...

But I will say that this model would look ideal to any millennial person who wants to work at a "progressive" tech company/start-up

But said company shall become as ruthless as any as they mature.

Work is not your family. Either knock it out of the park, or get fucked. Success in our industry is binary.

I reached out to this employer during last month's Who Is Hiring thread. They sent me one email saying they really thought I had a strong background, then another email asking me for times when I would be available to have an interview. I listed several times in my reply, but then I did not receive any follow-up communication of any kind. No confirmation, no rejection, just no response of any kind. Hopefully they hav…

Our sincerest apologies that things slipped through. We were able to identify you based on the description above, and I'll personally follow up in hopes of making amends.

Last month was our first time posting in the HN Hiring thread, and we didn't know how much volume we'd get. We responded in a very ad-hoc fashion, without implementing enough process around it. After some promising candidates came through the HN pipeline last month, we built out a bit more process for this month -- your feedback is very valuable and we'll do our best to prevent similar failure modes from happening again for other candidates.

Just as a heads up your 'View Open Positions' button appears to be broken.
