IIRC, TripleBye had a vision to be the recruiting division of all tech giants. Big-name companies would centralize their most important recurring, expensive, risky process into a third party to save some money and time. Even when that third party just so happened to be working for all of their direct competitors.
At the time, I thought that vision was a mirage; a recruiting agency grasping for VC dollars.
Now, it looks they're trying to find a new vision.
- runawaybottle 6y agoWell those companies exist right? Accenture, Cognizant, EPAM, etc. If anything, I’d say Triplebyte hopes to be what those consulting companies are but to startups. Now, if it turns out startups just have crappy budgets, then you have to lower the barrier to entry into the platform to accommodate those budgets. Similarly, if you indoctrinate enough of new grads/bootcampers to feel like they need the Triplebyte cert (feeling left out that everyone is in Triplebyte and you’re not? Welcome to the psychological game, behold the public profile and badges), you can then also indoctrinate startups into thinking that’s the standard that they need to be looking for too. Anyway, devs with enough experience should be out of this game mostly, this will affect the entry level tier of developers going forward. You might be stuck in the damn Triplebyte loop.
