Thank you for sharing your feedback. Your approach certainly makes sense and I'm also not a fan of listing specific programming languages (as well as stacks, frameworks, platforms or products) as strict requirements. However, in my book, it makes sense only for mature companies and later-stage startups. Early-stage (especially, bootstrapped, small and non-VC-backed) startups simply cannot afford to spend time for training on the job.
- oaiey 6y agoVery good point regards training on the job. Indeed a factor to consider in discussion about early stage recruiting!!!
- ablekh 6y agoThank you!
- kqr 6y agoI think with the right, bright people, they'll train themselves in no time. But sure, that shifts the problem from getting "people who know F#" to "people who are very intelligent and experienced", which might be equally hard if not more so. I believe it's worth it, but have no data to back it up.
- ablekh 6y agoFair enough.
