Hey, I know you occasionally take interns. Are you still open to that?
Absolutely. We don't have an ad up for internships specifically (we probably should!), but you can fill out the backend application and mention you're looking for an internship :)

Oh man, the only C# job on here and it's US only. Time to learn {Go, Rust, Python, Ruby}, I guess.
There are now a shit tonne of C# postings. No need to learn those inferior languages.

#793ZALORA | Singapore | ONSITE, REMOTE, VISA ZALORA is an online fashion retailer headquartered in Singapore with millions of customers and 1000+ employees throughout South East Asia. We're expanding our globally distributed DevOps team. You will be using Nix/NixOS to glue together a stack of Go, Memcached, MySQL, PHP, Solr and more. A coding test is the biggest deciding factor. After that we'll chat, call and optionall…
Is it vital to complete the coding test in Haskell/PHP stack hosted on NixOS? What if I do the same thing on a Ruby (Rails) stack, with a Vagrantfile, would it still be considered?

#795>The interview process is several phone screens, a take home coding challenge, and finally an on-site interview. It has become really arduous to switch tech jobs these days. I've been spending close to 20-25hrs/job-application even before on-site interview which is another 2 days of time sink. I've used up a major chunk of my vacation this point just for tech interviews. Feel angry and powerless. Maybe next year!!
There's a massive surplus of SW engineers, developers, designers, etc. Wages have gone down a bit and you should expect more or this hoop jumping B.s.
From what I have seen, many companies do indeed complain about a shortage of developers, yet their actions are completely at odds with this.

Small, start-up like environment. At Wal-Mart, a Fortune-1 company. Think about it. (Also, having worked there ... um ... no. The place is worse than Oracle.)
I've actually heard really positive things about Walmart Labs from the Node community. They've even built and open sourced the popular framework hapi ( http://hapijs.com ).

Your career page mentions housing as a perk. That's a first for me. I do not match any profile but I'd recommend friends.
