I got a job from stackoverflow posts too, it was a company whose entire strategy was hiring "Developer Evangelists" which I had never heard of before. I tried to internalize that silly name but really the company's product just wasn't in a place to "evangelize" anyway so it didn't work for very long. I hated that job, I excluded it on my resume.
- 8n4vidtmkvmk 3y agoI'm in the top 250 on Stackoverflow and didn't get any job offers through there. I wasn't looking but I think I've only had one person contact me off the platform which involved finding my website and then my contact form. But they just wanted more answers.
- yieldcrv 3y agoit wasn't through there, it made a difference in the recruitment and hiring process and I had my stackoverflow badge on my resume at the time just happenstance that somoene at that particular company was looking for it. actually was a red flag that they were, but it paid a lot more than I had ever been paid before, for those 3 months I worked there
- erhaetherth 3y agoHah. I have my badge on my website. I'm surprised a recruiter was looking for it.
