Developer here - If I were about to interview for a dev job at svpply I would surely find this blog post and promptly cancel my interview. No way am I going to go to work for a guy who has no experience doing what he is tasked to do. This is kinda scary.
- tlow 15y agoDifferent people respond differently. Maybe his post will work in helping the right candidates to self select in, while others select out.
- lallysingh 15y agoAnother developer here -- I already like the guy. Assuming he's not an ass in real life, I'd happily work for him (if I was looking for work).
- ecopoesis 15y agoEvery CEO has no idea what they're doing the first time they're a CEO. Most don't know it. Many won't know it even after the been a CEO for years. If I was applying for a job at svpply, I'd be happy that CEO knows what he doesn't know: it's much better then someone thinking they know everything and not having a clue.
- scotth 15y agoI would happily work for this guy. Seems like an opportunity to be both a programmer and help out with operations too. Sounds fun.
- X-Istence 15y agoI'd love to work for him. There is an opportunity for me to learn what he is learning, and to even help with ideas and researching. He is ultimately doing exactly what he wants to be doing and from the looks of it he is working very hard at solving the issue of not knowing.
- chc 15y agoThen working at a startup for a first-time founder is definitely not for you, and probably not any startup. Which is OK — different people thrive in different environments and different risk/reward levels. You should be thanking this guy for helping you understand where your tolerance lies before you got snookered by somebody less candid.
