Def rings true . I interviewed with google last month. I met like ~20 people who were also interviewing at google at the hotel breakfast. Some of them said they have been prepping for the interview everyday for past 4 months ( didn't help with my confidence :)). Reception at google was filled with 100s of people waiting for their turn to be picked up. And this was just one building among of many, many buildings. Lady…

Heavens. Doesn't Google see what's happening here? All they've managed to bring forth with their epic hiring process (now the de-facto gold standard, worldwide) is an epic... arms race. The higher they set their "bar", the more desperately people will cram their heads full of Boyer-Moore, A*, and countless other algorithms they (and their interviewers) couldn't otherwise begin to care about. Other than Avis, Airbnb,…

Every agent in an arms race is behaving rationally, from their perspective. The only solution is cooperation, but corporations have less incentive to cooperate than, say, nation-states.

Chicago. But I've flown down to sfo, seattle couple of times. I seem to be able to not get past on-site interviews :/.

Anectodally, it seems to be a lot worse in the US. But why would it ? I would have thought the competition for great engineers is highest there. Humiliating them is not the best strategy...

The pay is high in the States. Many companies are willing to pay a steep premium for slightly stronger employees, and the candidates are more willing to jump through hoops to land a higher-paying job.

Not the whole story of course, but might be a factor.

Depth Security | Kansas City, MO | ONSITE | FULL-TIME

We are looking for Pentesters! Have fun breaking things and then help fix them. Work with smart people in a smaller security shop (no project managers or suits!). While we are currently looking for web app testers, Depth conducts a wide range of assessments that you will be able to rotate in on or work with someone experienced to learn new things. One of my personal favorite things is being able to learn from the guys that focus on mobile and internal pens, you can grow your skillset and career here!

Interview Process: We just want to talk shop!

Looking to switch into Security?

We talk to quite a few candidates that are looking into a career in infosec and it makes us happy to see the growing interest in the field. The best thing you can do prior to making the switch is get hacking! Play CTFs, build a home pentest lab, turn in bug bounties, or get yourself a certification that means something. (Hint: Not one of those multiple choice exams! Check out the OSCP or WAPTX) Learning opportunities in penetration testing have never been more accessible, with plenty of sites offering courses for free. While penetration testing is a continuous learning experience with new attacks and techniques coming out daily, we look for candidates that have taken steps to start learning on their own.

Benefits

* Performance bonuses

* 100% company-paid insurance premiums (individual and family)

* 401k

* Low-deductible medical insurance

* Dental and Vision insurance

* Generous research hardware/software budget

* Relocation assistance available

The final startup that will take care of a doctor's appointment booking needs and pain points with huge plans for healthcare: Connect people with their doctors and become the number one name people think of when they want to connect to their doctors.

Hiring process: phone screen, coding assignment, in-person interview

Product: Web app dashboard for staff members at a clinic to manage appointments, check-ins, payments, and messages. Mobile app for patients. Automated appointment reminders, recalls, recare, and invites to get the app. Product is integrated with staff workflow / Electronic medical record system.

Problem: Patients call to book appointments, forget about their appointments, overall clumsy way to communicate in 2016. Providers find it hard to manage patients and get them back into the clinic.

The big plan: Going all the way - build out a network of providers and make healthcare truly interoperable.

Demand: We're hiring because we can't keep up with customer demand. Investors and healthcare big-shots both see the value in what we are trying to build.

We're looking for mid-level to senior engineers who want to own the product from inside out.

Backend: Looking to port over monolithic REST Ruby on Rails API app into microservices. Currently looking into new languages to use especially functional languages like Scala, Haskell etc. You should have experience building out backend service API's and writing all types of test code. Should be able to read and understand Ruby.

Frontend: Currently AngularJS, looking to rewrite entire frontend in your choice of technology (React.js?)

Dev-ops: Looking to migrate from PaaS Aptible to AWS. Should have knowledge of ECS, ELB, RDS, ElasticCache, VPC, CloudFormation, CloudSearch.

Extra points if you have experience with NLP, Search or Machine Learning. Also If you have deal with HL7 before.
