Google login killed it for me. I didn't even try to look at more of your challenges.
The snippets of challenges on your homepage are almost entirely math problems. Math is an incredibly important part of software dev, but there's more than just math to software and your problems don't reflect that.
You overuse the word hacker. It's become a buzzword and you're perpetuating that problem.
And finally, your site is built on a flawed concept. Even if you fixed all of these problems, you didn't fix the core problem-- your business does the opposite of it's job because truly great """hackers""" won't jump through these hoops just for the hope of getting an interview.
This is just my opinion, of course. I sincerely wish you the best of luck with your business, but it definitely isn't for me.
- rvivek 15y agoHi Mtogo, got it! We're in the process of launching real-world problems just like the reddit jobs page [http://www.reddit.com/r/blog/comments/fjgit/reddit_is_doubling_the_size_of_its_programming/ http://www.reddit.com/r/blog/comments/fjgit/reddit_is_doubli...] which is not only more than math problems, but more than algorithm challenges itself. We're adding twitter auth / Fb connect as well. Is there a particular reason, why you don't like Google auth?
