Would love to hear feedback on the idea / site itself, but would love it even more if people post a job or two! Here's some info from the about page that explains what I'm trying to solve / improve in the hiring process for software developers etc.
A huge number of software developers believe that the interview process for developers is broken. Some interviews suit certain people while to others it frustrates them to the point that they don’t even want to continue the hiring process. We believe that this isn’t good for the company looking to hire a candidate or the candidate themselves. While there’s no silver bullet for this problem, we certainly think that things can be better – much better in fact.
This is why SoftwareJobs.xyz was created. Imagine you could filter jobs by the interview type – now you can! Do you hate whiteboard interviews – fine, you’ll never have to write pseudo code ever again in front of a bunch of other developers. Maybe you prefer to do take home tests so to show your full potential so that you don’t feel under as much pressure and can use your own IDE etc. Or maybe you even refuse to do interviews unless you’re compensated for your time by doing paid interviews?
Basically need a Codality for normal companies with reasonable mixture of real world practical problems, and reasonable algorithm questions. Then hopefully the copy cat culture can pick up on that and we’ll have an organic fix to the shitty programming interview puzzle garbage filtering out decent developers who are just fine for most companies.
As a seasoned developer, I always have to practice those types problems before interviewing for a new position. It's a complete waste of time as they don't represent actual development work.
Everybody has their own preference, and I'd love a jobs board that lets you actually search by those preferences.
