how the hell do you post this and then also another comment that says nobody should pay their developers? which is it? don't go into debt, or don't get paid?!
this is ridiculous. you expect people to give you their labor for free? not only expect it, but CELEBRATE IT IN ALL CAPS?! and you encourage others to not have to pay a developer a "market salary (or any salary)"?
also it's not working for free if you've got fat equity on the way because you're a co-founder - you're just taking your compensation in a different form.
so not only is this not some virtuous thing that they did out of the good of their heart, it's exploitative and should be looked at as an example of the reprehensible attitudes toward labor that have proliferated in the valley.
you're probably one of those people who think interns should work for free, and that weekends are for catching up on work.
Once again, I'll post this. Admins will probably send it to the bottom, but it's especially important now that companies tell us about their process so that we can compare and expedite, including how many:
- technical phone screens
- video interviews / coding interviews
- projects (esp. length and duration, paid/unpaid, etc)
- portfolio / code reviews on past projects
- onsite interviews and if there's any whiteboarding or pairing, etc. [note: we'll assume these are virtual now]
- will the position stay remote or do you plan on making it in-person?
As well as the total amount of time you expect interviewing to take!
