Why I should participate ? My code challenges works great !

Are you sure ?

Don't have much time to complete a fairly difficult test is not easy.

Some (most ?) developers do not work great under much stress.

Most of the time the success in a code challenge is about having already solved something similar.

OK, maybe code challenges are not perfect, but they works good enough...

Sure but you can get much more from this simple experiment.

You can answer question like:

• Did the candidate provide test coverage for the pull request ?
• Did the candidate wrote a single giant commit or a lot of smaller incremental one ?
• Did the candidate explained what is been done ? Did she explain why ?
• Are the guidelines of the project been followed ?

Humm start to be interesting...

And it is completely risk free, just send me an email and I will add you to the companies page.

Can I suggest open source where to test the candidate ?

Sure, you can suggest those project, however if a candidate made a wonderful contribution to some other project I am expecting you to treat her as well as all the other candidate.

Great, I am now in the companies page, what now ?

As soon as some candidate make a pull request I will scan through such request pretty quickly just to make sure that is not completely garbage, if the pull request is acceptable in quality I will introduce to you the developer.

Cool, how much it cost ?

For now it is completely free of charge. Enjoy ;-)
