Lighthouse (500 B18) | https://getlighthouse.com | Senior Front End Engineer | San Francisco, CA | Onsite

Employees quit managers, not companies. If you've ever worked at a dysfunctional, hyper-growth startup, or a big company wrecked by politics, you've experienced how bad management can make work miserable. It’s crazy managers aren’t given more help. We're changing that by helping with the fundamentals of good management through software.

We are currently in 500 Startups Batch 18 and have hundreds of paying customers. You’re a fit for this role if you:

  - Enjoy working on a small team

  - Are excited about implementing a modern front end framework of your choice 

  - Interested in taking lead on writing a style guide 

  - Passionate about building great user experiences
Our current stack currently includes: Ruby/Rails, Capistrano, HTML/Sass, Bootstrap, jQuery, Postgres, Redis

* Interested? Email jay@getlighthouse.com mentioning Hacker News in the subject line. Please, no recent code school grads.

post #527

>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!!

Startups trying to hire talented & motivated people have to interview around 10 candidates for every hire. By conservation, the average job seeker has to go to 10 interviews, and some will need to do a lot more than 10. So don't assume there's something wrong with you unless you've racked up >50 rejections. Is (10 * a few days) to change jobs is an unreasonable burden? I subscribe to the rule of thumb that you should…

I've spent around a month for just 7 interviews. I made it to 'onsite round' for all of them only to be rejected there, so that compounded my time spent/interview.

I am not sure if I want to compare my time to 'startups trying to hire', that comparison seems off to me. I don't have millions and I have kids that I can use my vacation time for.
