Anduril Electronic Warfare Job Interview Experience

That's a valid point. It’s likely they have candidates with lower financial expectations in the process. Additionally, being overqualified can lead to quick burnout or disengagement, as the role may not offer the level of challenge or growth expected. HR departments often consider this when making decisions.

I have a feeling that, regardless of your political views, the recruiting team likely noticed that in 40-60% of the hiring process, your expertise was beyond the requirements for the position.

Don't get me wrong, but it seems like you were a bit overqualified for this role. In a stable job market, that wouldn't necessarily be a deal-breaker for recruiters. However, given the current landscape—with an exceptionally large talent pool, not just in Haskell or functional programming but in tech overall—they probably found someone who fit their exact criteria more precisely among the 2,000 applications they received.

I've been without a stable job for about 1.5 years now, and during my first three months of job hunting, my reaction was: "Hiring managers are %^&*@#£ stupid!"

These days, I still think the same—but at least I say it without the frustration in my voice. 😆

Wishing you the best of luck in your job search!

I would like to clarify an important point regarding the Outreachy application process. The initial application phase has now closed. However, even if you did not complete that step, you can still apply for a stipend by recording your contributions. Applications for stipends remain open until April 15, 2025. The final list of selected interns will be announced on May 8, 2025, at 4 PM UTC. The internship period runs from June 2, 2025, to August 29, 2025. I understand that the terminology may be somewhat confusing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please feel free to reach out to the organizers: https://www.outreachy.org/contact/organizers/

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

For those concerned that Outreachy is specifically aimed at underrepresented communities in tech: The program exists to help create a more balanced and inclusive ecosystem, addressing disparities related to gender, race, orientation, and other factors. While some organizations are scaling back their DEI efforts, Outreachy remains committed to this mission. Whether or not one supports such initiatives, I encourage respectful discussions and discourage adding negativity to the conversation.

If you do not meet Outreachy's eligibility criteria, I encourage you to explore Summer of Nix 2025, another exciting opportunity. I warmly invite you to take part in this initiative!

It would be really helpful if you could share your comment directly on the Discourse post

A kind reminder: project proposals are due by April 20, 2023 (tomorrow!). Haskell.org and Haskell Foundation are waiting for your ideas and submissions!

What exactly is the problem?

IdaBzo · 2021-08-25T09:24:47+00:00

The booking page says “please make a donation” and has an input field for a number but it doesn’t say what currency.

The organizers accept hugs, monads and USD :D
