“Groovy Motherfucker”

Todd Agres from Spark Capital on the lack of quality software engineering talent available at the moment. “A blight ensues when there are hundreds of companies looking for the same people. I would guess that there are at least twice as many engineering jobs in start-ups as there are people to fill them.”

My group at RhymesWithNose is hiring. I can honestly say that this is the most fun and challenging job I’ve ever had, so if you think you’re hot stuff, or have any questions, let me know. We’re working on some pretty damned cool stuff.

Good Rands post on how to correctly deal with job interviews — as an information-gathering operation. “How… would you… test a soda machine… in the dark… submerged in strawberry jello?”

There is much I agree with here. Maybe this weekend I’ll finish off a draft blog entry I’ve been meaning to do for months on hiring.
