But isn't that the recruiting process? Even Amazon prefers memorising past solutions and rejecting new or creative solutions.

If you can take the heat, public shaming always works and also makes other people aware. If you want to remain anonymous, moving on is probably the best option. What happened to you is called brewdogging, named after a similar public shamin

That seems low even for 2009. Also, why is the developer the CEO and not the CTO? This is such a random example.

This reads like satire and his email to developers is very similar to spam. I really liked this part: I demand the best work from you. I expect the best from you. You will be challenged. You will grow. And your skills will sharpen. If you

This is it, this was 90% of my interviews so far. People barely smart enough to do the job that have no clue about anything.

So the problem is paying them. You want a founder for an engineer's salary.

You should read the articles and not just the titles. It was never in production.

I doubt hundreds of thousands of people get their cards compromised every day. Maybe a couple hundred. Even so, how is this a startup?

I may be bitter, but writing about shady companies and broken hiring practices is not trolling. It's a reality many people talk about and nothing will change if we don't protest and just accept it. I didn't insult anybody. An

Are these the same roles from last year? Maybe your practical interviews are not working if you can't find someone for a year.

> Instead, our interview process mimics what it’s actually like to work here. It’s highly asynchronous, favors writing and involves building something useful. Are you making candidates write production code for you for free?

They don't know the difference between LLM and ML. I can only imagine their hiring process.

Ignore them, they hire cheap and just had a data breach recently.

It's a bit ironic that a company named Silobreaker wants people onsite.

Wow the answers are bad. I can tell you for sure practice does nothing and can actually turn into confidence which can be read as arrogance. Researching the company is also a waste of time, it will maybe give you a 5% boost. The reality is

Isn't the feedback "get better at leetcode" and "talk while you're solving the problem"? These seem to be the universal reasons for rejection.

It’s not about age, it’s about experience. Once you get to 15-20 years nobody will want to hire you anymore. Look into it, it’s real. The people saying otherwise are either lifers at their company or lying.

> Just be a person that ships, makes things work, in a friendly mood and you are set for life. This is the biggest lie in tech. Doing this will keep you overworked because you’re reliable. You will never get promoted and when you try to

I noticed many YC companies that ignore applications. Maybe it's some sort of marketing technique.

You've been posting these roles for years. Why? If you're not hiring you're just wasting people's time.

I have 15 years of experience and nobody wants to hire me. This is also your most likely future in tech. It was a scam.

It’s the same here as well. Everything you read about tech is wishful thinking.
