Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'm considering applying but the application form is so painful... In particular: "Please describe in as much detail as you think is appropriate what the responsibilities of the Model, View, and Controller are, both in general and in Rails specifically, and what the benefits of this separation are." and "A user browses to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce in their browser. Please describe in as much detail as y…

As a hiring manager at GitLab, I'll tell you that these questions are surprisingly effective in filtering candidates. I'm sorry it feels painful to you, however, it's for good reason.

How would you know?

Most of us laugh at a question like that on an application and move on. It's not worth the effort. You have no idea what candidates you never even see because of those ridiculous questions on an applications.

Not a lawyer, but I think it might be illegal to only hire US citizens, unless you're some government contractor. Did you mean you don't sponsor visas? Then you should clarify I think.

it's race & national origin (protected class), not citizenship status. See https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/statutes/titlevii.cfm

"everything you need to know about your digital experience" Can you expand on this? It doesn't tell me much.

We're building a privacy-aware session replay and analytics tool.

Basically this means we're looking at providing tools to allow our customers to capture the minimum amount of data to visually reconstruct playback with the absolute minimum personal data (if any).

From the analytics data we can capture aggregated data on frustration/flow/etc.

This is a drastic simplification of what we do, but the scale we're working on and the opportunity to do the right thing in this space is what keeps me here.
