What it does
With Takehome you can administer at-home coding challenges to your candidates in a way that respects and values their time. Create your own challenges or pick form a range of sample challenges. Any language, any framework. Takehome makes it simple to keep track candidates and review their responses as a team.
Code belongs in git. Not on a whiteboard.
Strictly timeboxed tasks level the playing field. Place less pressure on candidates and improve diversity. Test people with the tools they're familiar with, in an environment they're comfortable in. Takehome is the best way to conduct technical screening, regardless of whether you share an office or not. There are challenges targeted at many languages complete with boilerplate code and detailed instructions. The best challenge is the one you write yourself. It's easy to modify one of ours or create your own from scratch. (Takehome handles the first bits. Those last two are up to you.) Takehome clearly and strictly limits the amount of time allowed for a challenge. Time limited challenges…from takehome.io

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
