| In addition, a summary of the hiring process. The standard one-line HN Who's Hiring summary is also more informative than most the boilerplate crap I come across. Example: > FormulaFolios | Full-Stack Rails Developer | Costa Mesa, CA | ONSITE Full-Time | $80k-100k As a hiring manager, I've put a great deal of thought and effort not only in our job posting but in our whole process. It requires extra effort for sure, but having been on the other side of the process and suffered the many indignities of job hunting, I try to be spare our applicants from them as much as possible. This means responding within 48 hours to any applications and notifying applicants when they've been rejected for consideration as soon as possible. These messages are all templated but I tailor them to each candidate. Since I take some pride in our job postings, here's our most recent one: https://stackoverflow.com/jobs/172538/full-stack-rails-devel... (We're closing it soon so link will probably be dead by end of the week.) |
