Is it true that such a headline attracts attention? But real vacancies with such salaries attract even more attention. And today we came across just such an offer. And this is not a simple boring list of required skills and an offer to send a resume. And a whole tournament, we would even say a battle, that will take place in Kyiv this week.
No matter how the employer arranges the search for employees, the first thing that becomes known to everyone is the actual position for which candidates are being sought. And in this case, as you can guess from the number of zeros in the dollar annual salary, we are not talking about the Junes at all. The company needs a Chief Software Architect. And not just one piece, but as many as 50, and in different languages: Java (where would we be without it), .NET and Ruby on Rails. Do you feel the smell of language holivar already in the air? And Crossover (an HR company from Austin, Texas) took this battle from the Internet into reality, turning the selection of high-quality specialists into unique tournaments. Just think, it’s enough to add an element of gamification to screening and testing candidates and the boring recruiting process turns into a fierce battlefield. The company has already tested this approach in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Budapest, Timisoara, Krakow, Warsaw, Istanbul, St. Petersburg, Lahore, Cairo, Moscow, Karachi, Kiev (yes, this is not the first such event with us), Lvov and Kharkov, hiring thus more than 300 excellent specialists from all over the world. And you, with the proper level of knowledge, have the opportunity to join their number. But let's return to the event itself. The second introduction to the tournament, the time - in this case it is Saturday, November 18th. And the third introductory event, the venue, has not yet been announced (it is better to register in advance so as not to miss its announcement). But, despite the housing instability (most likely caused by the uncertainty with the number of participants), there is already a plan for the event. Schedule: - 09:00 Registration; — 10:00 Introduction and instructions; — 10:30 First round of test; — 12:30 Lunch — food/drinks and question/answer session; — 14:00 Second round of test; — 17:00 Technical interview; — 19:00 Announcement of the winner. If you plan to participate, it is advisable to bring your own laptop. As a result, the best will be asked to sign a work contract on the spot with an annual salary of $100,000. Remote work for American companies. At the same time, Crossover provides its own software for trouble-free operation from anywhere in the world (and even while traveling). If you want to chat with the tournament organizers in advance, you can catch them at the Payoneer forum, which will be held in Kyiv on November 16.
