Ask HN: What would you want in a site for dev jobs if it was built today?

5 pointsby imrank1over 8 years ago
Some things I would want to be able to search on ideally : - Whats the work environment like? - Testimonials from current and former workers. - Tech stack - Remote Ok/Occasional work from home ok - Salary range - Total Funding - Revenue positive? - Continuous Integration? - Recent features launched - Test driven development? - Dev hardware provided - Code reviews? - Interview style ( with examples of how the company screens candidates ) - Values

I recently built <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;coloradodev.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;coloradodev.com</a> to solve this problem for myself. Specifically, I wanted a jobs list that excludes staffing agencies and recruiters.

A very comprehensive &quot;remote&quot; option list, because I&#x27;ve noticed the following possibilities for &quot;remote&quot; jobs:<p>- truly remote from any continent&#x2F;planet<p>- remote from one specific continent<p>- remote but within these timezones<p>- remote but within commuting distance of HQ<p>- remote on Friday

Median cost to rent a 2 bedroom apartment and median cost of a 2-3 bedroom house within 30 minute commute radius.<p>Is there an option to take a train&#x2F;lightrail to the office.<p>Do you have to work weekends?

The ability to search on a map or at least within a radius of a given location is very important, especially outside of major cities. Sometimes companies nearby are located in small suburbs I&#x27;ve never heard of. If I see that the job is in Nowhereville, TN, I don&#x27;t know if that&#x27;s 20 minutes away or 2 hours away.

May sound delusional, but I&#x27;d like there to be actual jobs. Job sites are usually devoid of actual, interesting opportunities. (I&#x27;m not a person that is interested in building user interfaces)<p>Bonus points if you don&#x27;t require my linkedin because I don&#x27;t have no fucking linkedin.

I think this is a very nice list. I particularly agree with the inclusion of dev hardware provided and interview style. I really don&#x27;t enjoy A &amp; DS beatdowns.

I would also add what the general hours are that most of the team is available and if there are flex hours.
