We believe sustainable mobility should be for everyone, therefore it shouldn't hard for anyone. Users shouldn't have to struggle with dozens of apps, accounts, processes just to get to where they want. We want to empower users with choice, take the hassle out of the process and make it simple so that together we create more liveable cities. We want to do this on a large scale (Europe and beyond). We recently raised 6m€ to scale up and build our core tech team. If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

Not sure how reflective that test is, since my perception is already primed by noticing the loading time per sample

That's possible, but then doesn't that limit your candidates pool to people with engineering degrees?
I'm not sure about the couple of years experience, that's sometimes a miss depending on what they built during those years.

That's similar to my current experience. Not to mention, competition from bigger companies is fierce when it comes to good senior devs.

It's always about the right compromises indeed..

Thank you for sharing your experience. I thought about cutting the process short like you suggested and live with the chances of bad hires but:
1. How do you avoid having a bad effect on the current team when they see churn like that?
2. College results could work for junior hires, but senior ones? Rely on feeling about their previous work experience?

Lepaya | Full Stack Developer | Full-time | ONSITE | Amsterdam, NL
We help companies to make training stick. We do this by blending on- and offline learning, and creating engaging, learning journeys. We leverage on the latest research in learning, to ensure we do that what works - and we continuously measure and (im)prove. This way, we help employees grow - in a way that fits busy and demanding schedules both at and outside work.
Founded in 2017, we are already working with clients across The Netherlands, Germany and Singapore. Our typical clients are fast-moving, mid/large-sized companies, which invest in their employees.
