Hi m00dy, I'd like to clarify one thing - none of your communications with BaseCase were 'automated' on the BaseCase-side. Every email that was signed-off by a person was manually sent by someone on our team. For 'common' emails, we do use email templates, but a person actually decides to send the template, not a bot. (Technical detail: the second software test uses an email bot to time the test, but this bot is not…

One would have to wonder how chaotic this firm is if a recruitment manager isn't capable of sending an E-Mail to every potential recruit they're supposed to send an E-Mail to. Why are you still repping these cases as individual mishaps? It took you 5 weeks to get back to me and it only happened after (because?) I posted here.

Hi wayn3,

To clarify - m00dy did get a response from our recruitment manager ~9 business days after submitting his application. What I acknowledged is that we could have done better is in responding immediately to the submission of his solution, instead of simply reporting the result 9 business days later.

And I responded to you 3 weeks after you sent in your solution, because it took me that long to have a chance to your solution. I wasn't actually aware of the HN posting at the time.

In any event, given all the issues raised here, I'm changing our recruitment process (I've added a comment below). I hope this addresses concerns.

I'm not trying to 'win' an argument here, I'm trying ensure BaseCase has a reasonable process that provides the outcomes I need while being transparent to participants. I therefore am trying to get a fair understanding of you and other's criticisms of the BaseCase recruitment process and making amendments that seem reasonable.

Regards,

Diarmuid

BaseCase | Berlin, Germany | Software Engineer | http://basecase.com | Remote, Visa Our primary product is a sophisticated web application which allows non-developers create interactive presentations. We're looking for talented front-end and back-end developers. Our technology stack is Javascript / jQuery / HTML5 on the back-end, and Python / MySQL on the back-end. But you don't need experience in our stack - we know…

I've decided to simplify the recruitment process, due to some criticisms in this thread (some I would disagree with, some fair). New applicants will follow this process:

1. New applicants receive an outline of the salary range, the working environment, our products, and the remaining recruitment process (our "FAQ").

2. "Software architecture" test (3.5hrs - 6hrs avg, 9hr max)

3. ~2 1hr interviews

4. Offer

The 'software architecture' test document has also been expanded, so that more information is provided on what we're looking for exactly.

Since everything is disclosed in step 1, people can make an informed decision on whether to proceed. This differs with the previous process in that one needed to pass a screening test before receiving this document.

Notes:

-) All applicants receive explicit accept / rejection emails (this has always been the case)

-) I will try to reduce the review time for the tests (I'm involving more people)

Regards,

Diarmuid / CTO of BaseCase

Excited to see a platform that doesn't charge fees to tenants. The rental industry in the UK, and especially London, is ripe for disruption. No fees is a good first step. Another example, one search criteria that many renters will not compromise on is shared housing, yet many (all?) platforms do not offer this search filter. Gotta admit the salary range for the lead engineer position is worrying. You won't find anyon…

Thanks - we've done some incredible work to get where we are, but plenty of challenges ahead, and lots more to be achieved. The salary range is fairly broad, and if anyone with lots of experience comes forward we'll happily negotiate. We want incentived, smart engineers, and hopefully we're approachable enough that there shouldn't be a barrier in terms of salary / benefits. Of course, in London, we might not be able…

Bear in mind the kind of people you want to hire for a lead engineer role are unlikely to apply in the first place, on the off-chance that you'll make them an offer significantly above the advertised range.

Anyway, best of luck - anything to improve the rental situation in London is very welcome!
