Compose | Remote (Canada, US, UK) What: Databases-as-a-service. We offer production grade, auto-scaling, automatically backed-up, add-on compatible MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, and more. Hiring Process: Blind hiring! First, a light application. Second, all candidates who complete the application receive a work-sample resembling the work one would do in the role. No deadline. Final step is a paid work day ($500). Compo…

I suggest searching the internet for a couple of minutes for reviews of this application process before you continue. I didn't take heed of the warnings about unresponsiveness and got bit. I submitted an application after grayfox claimed that the review process described here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11611867 was improved, and I sincerely felt that my time would be respected during the process. After subm…

Yea, I applied to Compose a while back. After they described their interview process to me, I said "No thanks."

That's something I'd never done before. In the past, even if I found a company's interview process to be dehumanizing and insulting, I still went through with it. Even if I wasn't desperate for a job. I just hated to say no.

Thank you, Compose, for presenting me with a hiring process so absurd it forced me to step outside of my comfort zone and grow just a little bit more as a person :)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Maybe talk to your lawyer or HR person before using IQ tests tho.

Elaborate? These tests are pretty common in interviews. I'd be curious to know what you're thinking.

I wonder if it depends on your location. I havent' seen one for over 15 years in Canada.

RateIt | https://www.rateitapp.com | Full Time | REMOTE

We're looking for a Full-Stack C# / ASP.NET Web Developer. RateIt is an Australian led start-up which is focused on helping retailers consistently deliver great customer experiences. We're looking for someone with strong experience with C#, ASP.NET MVC & Web API, Entity Framework, and SQL Server and strong experience with front-end SPA development - we use Backbone/Marionette but you don't have to have worked this -- use of other similar frameworks (ie. React, Angular, Ember, etc.) is fine.

We already have several world class customers such as Bose, Pandora, Calvin Klein, Samsung as well as Hospitals and Hotels using RateIt.

Our team are all remote – so we either work from home, a co-working space or a mix of both. If you're interested in working with us email me at neil@rateitapp.com
