I did 2 remote coding interviews for aws, years apart, and was ghosted twice.

You can always apply to triplebytes and get exactly such position :) <disclaimer: my affiliation with triplebytes is that they've rejected my application twice - possibly cementing parent suggestion that I'm underqualified to i

>it sounds like you're not a very good person to be interviewing candidates We agree on that one, but the alternatives are worse. Would you like to take my place interviewing? It's a time consuming task I'd love to delegat

It is rude. People put lots of effort into resumes. But it's ruder to reject a candidate based on age, gender, martial status, education or lack thereof or doing non sw jobs in the past. I always talk on the phone before and that'

I don't do much hiring, but when I do I make an active effort to avoid reading candidates resumes. I've found it's not possible for me to enter an interview with an unbiased mind having read a resume.

That's a great interview question (especially if you're not so much into hiring :)) Another one is: what happens when a node process completed execution? // node ex.js function foo() { // something async

I'm in agreement with you that docker on windows is less enjoyable an experience. btw enabling VT-x is required for other tools as well (Android Studio for device emulation).

For this kind of project the Dockerfile is an executable README . It's a reproducible and predictable installation guide.

[1] You've basically listed the very reason I'm using docker. It makes my code deployment agnostic. Bash "setup" files? been there. I write Dockerfiles. I think that's the only thing I'm strongly opinionated

Friendly suggestion: 1. Add the backend under same repo. 2. Add a root docker-compose.yml instead of sending interested party to "install backend". root | - frontend | - Dockerfile | - ... code | - R

The most frustrating part of learning new tech stack is the implicitly assumed tribal knowledge. ex. s.o answers start with np.yada without the import numpy as np part.

Nitpick: I'd rather use the python -m pytest way than modify sys.path (AKA "the django way"). Modifying sys.path is an ugly hack which makes python look like some... idk. matlab?

The "hire for" part is pretty straightforward - when you interview, you'll have candidates with zero idea what your company is building. They won't care either. Come Q time they'll ask about tech stack, code review,

I was taught to hold birds like that, TIL it has a name and it's a thing. IANAO, but it works on herons and pelicans.

All true known and well established. But homeschooling requires a parent to sacrifice anything else and be devoted for that. Not an easy decision. It's much easier to find a good school!

I think the "resistance" is partially based on the fact [1] we all did see an introvert, quiet, bright engineer promoted to an influential and senior (s.a "principal engineer" or "system architect", and less of

Winners are not about who's best. Git is not better than hg, Koalas are not better than giant sloth, Windows is not better than linux. So? All major hosted scm dropped hg support. What op tries to do seems emphatically Quijote-ish

In my case I got zero positives. It's easy to build an accurate classifier if recall is ignored. Not a single candidadte completed the task perfectly. Not hiring would be a failure for me.

>Candidates will be evaluated using a simple quantitative assessment of core competencies. I've tried implementing that with a coding take-home task, with "mixed results". On-paper great candidates often refused. On-paper
