Well, it's painful for me to read that. Is there any chance I could get you on the phone to talk about what we're doing and how to make it not scummy? (That offer goes out to anyone reading this). Email me at ammon@triplebyte.com, and I'll find a time to talk. Our mission (helping people get jobs based on the job skills they have, not what their resume says) is something that I think is really important.

And there it is, just as I mentioned. Unfortunately, I can't personally attest to the company, but I'm sure others who've been spammed can do so.

  Claims with no evidence can be dismissed with no evidence.

    Just look at the rest of the thread for claims, whether they have evidence is something you'll have to ask them. Simply because they are evidence less does not dismiss their claims, due to the number of such claims. In other words, if a lot of people are saying something, you should probably look into it.

I'm just gonna edit this, I'm sorry, I didn't need to be so harsh. It's too late to delete it. Oh well. I don't really disagree with what I said, but I lashed out unnecessarily.

  Companies have to stay marketing stuff like this because it converts at least a portion of their users. If they were honest, they would lose most of their potential users. Look at my other comment about company marketing being a mirage.

  Could you clarify your main point? Are you saying Triplebyte promised to change the interview game, but in reality, interviewing with them is the same as going through a regular interview process? It seems quite different though: you interview once with them, and then go directly to off-sites at multiple companies. Even if the interview is the same, the process is still quite different as you no longer have to send out numerous resumes and go through HR screening and first-round interviews. Or maybe I misunderstood your point?

    In my experience, it was basically the same as talking to a non-technical recruiter that doesn't know any of the qualifications they're looking for. When I tried them out, the "interview" was some guy persistently asking me questions about things wholly unrelated to my resume, skillset, and industry, even after they were told. The experience was pretty off-putting, especially with the later opt-out disaster.

  This is borderline mean and not really constructive. He clearly cares enough to respond to people in this thread, being rude like this is uncalled for.

I once spent some time to take your quiz to be an interviewer. I guess I didn’t pass, so I emailed to ask what my score was. You refused to give it to me, even after I asked a couple times. Would have been helpful to me for my learning. That was my first and last experience with triplebyte. Nothing extraordinary here.
