First time I ever tried to hire anyone was 4 weeks ago. I set out the following 3 tweets: "After announcing the funding for https://shimmerindustries.com https://shimmerindustries.com my mailbox if full of spam from companies offering office furniture, questionable loans, and promises to "optimize my funnel". What we really need is C programmers, who want to do low level coding, and save the planet." "We offer paid trials instead of endless interviews and whiteboard programing tests. If you want to work at a startup where you can have an impact, but without the bro-culture, jargon and BS this is it. DMs are open, or mail me at eskil@shimmerindustries.com" "We are open to junior applicants, and remote, as long as you can show some drive. Electronics experience a plus. Please share with anyone you may think could be interested." Today i got a team of six remote developers I'm excited about working with, I got more qualified candidates than that, but that where my bandwidth to onboard them ends. Part of getting people is probably my followers(@eskilsteenberg) and reputation, but making it simple, and not making adversarial. Too often the hiring process feel like a Mexican standoff.
