I've attended a few Haskell conferences over the years and the make up tends to be fairly evenly split between PL researchers, defence, aerospace, and finance. I recall the food stop after an event at Imperial where our table was twenty-ish people from Airbus, Barclays, Lockheed, QinetiQ, and Thales.
If you're looking to work in Haskell there are some avenues to hunt down. Same caveats as with Standard Chartered and Meta mentioned in the article, there is Haskell but it is scuttling around in the corners not flowing from everywhere.
- epolanski 4y agoMy biggest beef with Haskell is that it is very unwelcoming to people with no Haskell experience. Like I could show 10 personal projects in Haskell and still no one would give two damns and ask me for few years of professional Haskell experience. There's less work in Haskell than willing applicants it seems. It's time to sell it better to management.
- devoutsalsa 4y agoIf you know Haskell and people ask for experience, just write a program on your work computer and out it in your resume. If they need to see that to believe you have professional Haskell experience, then just give it to them. Programming interviews are pretty lame, so help them be less lame. You still need to prove your competence. And they’ll say anything to get you on board, so you’re just playing along.
