I guess your comment was in jest, but I can find plenty of developers for elixir that are willing and able to learn it in a month if I want to.

My company (I'm not the hiring manager, just in the know) has been struggling to find any kind of programmer who either knows Elixir, or who is willing to learn.

I'd love to help them along because the workload is getting rough. Are there any tips you can share about finding them? Where do you post ads, what's the process like, remote or in person? Anything would help. Thank you!

Did you guys post on the Aug 1 "Who's Hiring" thread? I got more than 5 responses to that for an Elixir job.

[the_only_law]

Damn I got rejected for a few Elixir jobs because of high/interest low professional experience with the language on my part.

Happy to take a look at your company as someone who's been picking at Elixir/Erlang in my free time for a bit :)

Any open positions?

[learc83]

Not OP, but we've got some open Elixir positions.

Do you think they’d be happy to maintain a transpiled COBOL code?

[carlmr]

No, of course not, I was just getting at this specific point that there are few COBOL and Elixir developers. Which, while true, has little to do with the talent pool you can draw from.

[rad_gruchalski]

Makes sense. I’ve done some fair share of Erlang myself some years ago.
