Build chat bots and job simulations at Interviewed (S15). Hiring dev and design.
We're Interviewed (YC S15) and we build job simulations. We're a team of 3 engineers and 1 ops who are taking the parts of hiring that work for developers and applying it to non-technical jobs.

We know that resumes don't matter for engineers. Instead, the way to identify the best candidate is to let candidates work on real-world problems in their native habitat. We think the same thing is true for customer service, sales, marketing, and lots of other roles. That's what we do…

Interviewed is a platform that simulates day-in-the-life situations so hiring managers can see candidates in action -- job simulations.

If you believe (as we do) that hiring is broken because resume screens and interviews don't work, come help us fix it. The challenges we have yet to solve are hard so I think you'll be stimulated by the both the product and technical hurdles.

---------------------

OPENINGS:
- Engineer (1)
- Designer (1)

Here are some of the projects you’d be working on:

ENGINEER:
- Chat bots (text and voice) that simulate complex customer interactions and are tailored for different roles
- NLP and machine learning algorithms to analyze emails, chats and voice recordings and score them across a variety of dimensions and predict who the best candidates are Design sophisticated UIs using React/Flux to let our customers build their own simulations (imagine Wufoo on steroids)
- Create simulations of day-in-the-life situations like a CRM, video conference presentation, or email marketing tools

DESIGNER:
- The Hamburger Menu needs to go. How to replace it when we have complex menus?
- Candidates are getting confused by our CRM and video simulations. How can we make it intuitive?
- Our scorecard is ugly; we'd get a higher share rate if it was beautiful.
- Ongoing: take complex UX and make it beautiful and usable; we want users to love using us.

---------------------

OUR PROCESS:
As you might expect, we're really into job simulations that represent real life and we try to avoid being biased by resumes.

1. Email us at apply@interviewed.com (Daniel, Darren, or Chris) and let us know that you're interested and why Interviewed could be great for you and vice versa
2. I'll reply to schedule a call and will send a micro project to think about -- it'll be something I've recently worked on
3. We'll invite you to meet the rest of the team.
4. Take-home project (paid, of course)
5. Offer

OUR TECH STACK:
We're language-agnostic. We've all worked in different languages before this (Java, Python, PHP, Perl) so we don't give preference to one language or another. You'll pick our stuff up quickly.

Rails + PostgreSQL + Firebase
React + Reflux + Immutable + lodash

OUR TEAM:
This isn't our first rodeo. Our team has been through the highs and lows with other startups and know (some) what to do and what not to do. Here's our team: https://angel.co/teaminterviewed#founders

OUR INVESTORS:
We’re backed by amazing investors like YC, SV Angel, Red Swan, and some of the top angels out there.

LOCATION:
We’re in SF a block from Montgomery BART. Remote candidates are welcome as long as you like Slack and you’re in North or South America… we can’t overcome a 6+ hour time zone difference, unfortunately.

COMPENSATION:
First, we decide if we want to hire you without considering price. Then we figure out what salary and equity we need to offer to win you. We think the idea of setting an arbitrary salary and then hiring "the best we can get for the money" is a recipe for losing out on the best people.
