| Hey! Thanks for the feedback, "I would n't go as far as to call your half-finished NodeJS/MongoDB tinkering and yet another mustache clone "real work on real projects" " I believe that most of the time, even the silly little pet projects, because their're made out of fun and passion and not because is paying you can provide a better insight into one's programming habbits, practices and skills.
A traditional CV tells you _nothing_ compared to a "half-finished" pet project. "I also want people that work for me to do what the duck I've told them to do in the end" Remember, you came to me, asking if I am interested in your "offers", as soon as I say "yes, please tell me more" you assume I work for you? I don't. Thanks, but no thanks.
You should not assume I am at your service because you privileged me with your invitation. "Sure, be I also hire for other 5,000 open positions in this company that are not "developers, programmers or software engineers" and I want a bloody CV document to put in my document management system alongside theirs." Hey, it's your job. I don't complain to users about how they should use web apps to make my work easier.
I'm not going to tell you how to do your job, and don't ask me to do it for you. Sorry if I came across as a dick. I assure you I did not mean to offend you.
I just feel that if I was recruiting, I would like some feedback as harsh as it may be.
I figure it is always better than being ignored.
Otherwise, I'm just sorry I wasted our time. Best regards Mr Recruiter, |
