Around 90%. That's a neat idea, I passed it to the recruiting tribe :) As for what's causing the people to drop out, it's mostly the tech stuff that's hard to notice in a short survey.

We don't follow them as a rule, most of the time we hear about them doing sth else - seems that it's option 2 &3 then :) The tech assignment is meant to check how you think AND how much you know - we think that it's easie

The to-do list also applies to followups - reactions to your code. You get a clear list of what comments other people had on your code, and if you don't want to work on them right away, there's no risk they are going to get buried

I would say the the biggest value of CodeBrag is that it is a well designed tool that does one thing well; such tools are usually worth their price - at least for the time they save not fighting other tools. Or writing on IM :) Besides, how

Maybe a Typesafe consulting partner? I work at SoftwareMill, a Scala software house, we're remote & distributed and quite used to the type of work you need. As for our experience, I think the most relevant bit would be moving yap.t

Thank you for your feedback. Yes, currently we only display commit diff. We are planning to add context view, e.g. ability to see the whole file. From our research an ideal solution would be to perform review in an IDE, where you have the c
