I'm guessing it will take a bit of work to support multiple languages/frameworks/platforms. A simpler solution may be to allow an interviewer to spin up a machine with the image/environment of choice (AWS, DigitalOcean etc) and do some kind of screen sharing with markup - easy to circle some code on a touch screen tablet. Interviewers typically specialize in languages and platforms, so every interviewer can maintain their favorite "interview machine image".
The feature I like best is the group comments - I would recommend restricting read access by all interviewers until everyone's feedback has been read by the interview co-ordinator, and the everyone gets to see all the comments during the hire/not group discussion among a possibly distributed team.
Also, I'm wondering why take on (what I assume is) the rather onerous task of supporting voice chat? Wouldn't it be simpler to adopt Skype (thru an API?) rather than fight it? My humble two cents: focus on where you're adding value, not call quality, security etc.
- asadlionpk 13y agoHey, Skype API hmmmm that's a nice idea, since WebRTC is in early stages. And it is actually helpful for others to see each others comments. This helps them not make redundant votes and each comment is a unique comment. I understand why you suggest that though.
