Hi everyone!

Spotful (www.bespotful.com) is platform that powers unobtrusive interactivity inside videos! We're based in Montreal, Canada, funded, and working with all the agencies you've heard of (Cossette, Sid Lee, RG/A) and some brands you love (Absolut Vodka, Cirque du Soleil).

We're currently looking for an intermediate (+) front-end developer (AngularJS-specialized) to join our growing team! This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to get in early on a team that is blowing it up.

We have fun, and our project is good for the internet (if our competitors win, there will just be more ads everywhere! We are pretty anti-ad ourselves). The challenges are real, but the team is solid! We can offer a good salary, benefits, stock options, and more.

Please reach out to me by email or reply to learn more.

Cheers,

Dan CTO @ Spotful dlazar at bespotful dot com

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Applied here for internship, got a coding challenge, completed it, but haven't heard back yet, what does this mean?

Really hard to say. Could be a number of things from the engineer reviewing the code being swamped to the coding sample not being strong enough to needing more time. If it's been a few days, it's ok to send in a nice email to the recruiter, even something simple like "Hi! Just wanted to check if you received my coding sample and if there's any feedback. Thanks so much!"

sorry for the late reply, but I never got an email from a recruiter, just a link to a coding challenge
