I am working on one and am wondering if you (OP and not) would consider telling me about what would make such a service productive and attractive to you?

I am working on one and am wondering if you (OP and not) would consider telling me about what would make such a service productive and attractive to you?
- twunde 9y agoReally it comes down to whether we can find qualified candidates from the website. I'm looking to increase the diversity in engineering so that it's not all 30ish white guys. My last job I worked with engineers in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s. I'd like to recreate some of that experience
- andrei_says_ 9y agoFrom implementation standpoint it wouldn’t be ideal to expose the age of the candidates as there are anti discrimination laws. I am wondering what other criteria could hint to to you that someone is a match? Maybe experience? Measured in certain ways?
- cimmanom 9y agoAs a candidate: attractive because I'd have confidence that employers there are going to value my experience (in contrast to those who slap "senior software engineer" labels on positions where they're looking for 3 years in the workforce). As a hiring manager: being able to find engineers with lots of experience instead of having my "senior software engineer" opening spammed with resumes from kids just out of school.
- andrei_says_ 9y agoThank you. Would you be interested in hearing about the service in beta?
- cimmanom 9y agoSure
