Be prepared to do ~10 hours of coding assignments before maybe speaking with an external recruiter.

@pabloadolescent : It sounds like you may have had a negative experience, and I'm certainly sorry to hear that. @BuckRogers : We certainly respect your right to not apply if you do not like the process. That is why we are very up front about it on our application page and publicly post all the challenges in GitHub. Folks are welcome to review them prior to applying to decide with full knowledge of what may be asked.…

I appreciate you taking the time to respond. I do think the various homework problems are fair and pretty well designed. If 3 people have reviewed each submission, I would have expected to get some feedback besides you are passing. If it is a rigorous review process then you should be able to easily say what criteria were not met. I think there is also the perception that the roles you can complete homework for, correspond to a current job opening. The applicant has no idea what your hiring timeline is and it may take them a week or two to submit all of the required assignments.

I want you guys to know that there are a number of people, such as myself, who overwhelmingly prefer coding assignments over whiteboarding, tech Q&A, or rattling off a string of accomplishments that are already covered in the resume.

It would be nice if devs were paid a modest sum ($75 Amazon Gift Card) for completing them. However, I never view them as a waste of my time because I always shoehorn some tech, tool, library, etc. that I've been meaning to study anyway. Also, if it doesn't work out, after some slight refactoring I now have another open-source project on github.

Also, I only do coding assignments for companies that I have targeted and have a desire to work for. In that way, it works as a handy filter. This is especially important for remote positions.

I doubt you are hiring. It this an attempt to get people to try out your product? hmm...

What makes it seem like they're not hiring?

Did anyone appear in their interview? I just wanted to check if someone in HN did.

FuseSport | Lead front-end engineer | Sydney, Australia | Full-time, onsite | $110k-$130k++

We're an established, funded player providing software for sports events across USA and Australia. Our aim is to connect sports organisers, athletes, supporters, and volunteers, with the best app in the world. We're working with the likes of ESPN and Microsoft, and we have offices in Sydney, Colorado, and Washington DC.

Our dev team is currently just six, and we are looking for someone to lead the front-end/app side of what is an ambitious, comprehensive new platform. You'll be working with our CTO and back-end Python guy, another React gun we have on the team, and once you've gotten underway (or possibly sooner!) we plan to hire another front-end developer (or two) to help you.

The stack is Python/Django, React, React Native; but that's not set in stone yet, so there's still opportunity to help make some of those key decisions with us (eg Redux vs Mobx, debate React vs Angular vs Vue vs Aurelia, and so on).

Email me simon.litchfield (at) fusesport.com prefixing the subject with "HN:"
