What it's like to work at Disqus: interview

That's like an interview of some spoiled child actor.<p>Seriously, nothing they said there was unique. Perhaps it was watered down by the interviewer, but it seems like they could place any company name there looking to hire some people and they probably had the gal to charge them for a 'candid company portrait' as part of their high level web 2.0 recruiting process.<p>Smells bad to me.

I'll say this, and I speak only for myself and a medium sized rat I have in my home:<p>I think it makes a company a lot more likeable when we see an interview with the founders where the founders are just normal people who appear _humble_! I won't mention any names, but there are a few founders who have blogs and whatnots that give this vibe that they are so intelligent and so much better than the rest of us. It makes me want them to fail.<p>The Disqus guys seem down to earth and a bit camera nervous, which makes them likeable, and makes me want them to succeed too.<p>So, I think more founders here should post videos of themselves on their product pages, and people will generally be nicer, I believe, as you change from some text into a real person one could meet someday.

"Who are you looking to hire and what skills will they have?<p>We’re looking for great developers who are passionate about contributing to and shaping the web."<p>Sounds perfect for the HN crowd.
