bummer you guys aren’t in stocholm @tord ... i’m currently looking for an consultancy assignment pref in clojure/clojurescript
@kitofr: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/clojure/skillable/clojure/L_HHbxJRwXs/rxJ3ZGevCQAJ
of course, if anyone was in desperate needs of a Clojure(Script) consultant in Oslo...
We're not really desperate (yet), Clojure skills are a big plus rather than a requirement, and we're looking for a regular employee rather than a consultant. Still, it's a little disappointing that nobody here seems to be interested in the job. Do any of you other employers here have any suggestions for good places to look for potential candidates?
you will see who is good, you will learn their character and occasionally learn who is willing to change job / looking for new work
I organize Prague Lambda; I found two projects and found very good developer to join my previous company
Also people in your meetup will search for developers; eg my friend is now looking for black-belt Erlang programmers to join his project in London (but I guess this is wrong channel for Erlang opportunities 😉 )
@tord after posting a job here, people actually reached out to me immediately ✌️ this is a great way to chat with the right people so far
there are many good engineers who just prefer to stay in their small cities / villages. I know a few companies which hire remote employers and they don’t have problems with finding developers. Actually I wonder why so few companies hire remote developers. I spent a lot of time working on site and remotely and I don’t see any difference
@tord: I'm in Oslo, but I'm moving this summer and don't like going to an office to work. Bummer.
agreed but on the other hand places like Berlin would have never become startup/tech hubs if ppl did the projects remotely, there is some synergy happening when you share the physical environment as well
@ondrejprochazka: agreed, but does that have to be work/office related? I reccon we have a quite nice startup scene here in stockholm as well, but I would think that has very little to do with actual office space. I would think that, given developer/programmer is the most common occupation in stockholm right now, we have a “lot of horsepower” at the same place.
@kitofr you're right, of course. On the other hand, the reason there might be such a high concentration of talented and skilled people might be that people relocated there because of a job
@yenda: I am sure remote work will become more common in the future, but I believe it works better for some types of work than for others. And I definitely hope it is not the future, because it seems like an awfully depressing way to work to me personally.
@tord: quick clarification on your posting: would PlayMagnus fund a move to Oslo, or would the new hire have to fund it themselves?
