cmaloneybut I have stayed primarily on Stack Overflow Jobs22:10
ZimdaleI talked to ambassador a lil while back22:24
Zimdalewas REALLY offput by the recruiting fellow22:25
ZimdaleHowever they seem like a pretty solid startup with some good income22:26
cmaloneyZimdale: orly?22:30
cmaloneymaybe I have someone different because he seemed pretty on the level22:31
ZimdaleHe was just super slow, disconnected and kind of rude.22:32
cmaloneyah22:32
ZimdaleWas like pulling teeth to get information about the company from him22:32
cmaloneyI had that with one dude. part of the problem was his skype or whatever was terrible22:32
ZimdaleAh, I didn't get past the initial phone call with them22:33
Zimdaleseems like they made the decision prior to calling22:33
cmaloneydifferent place22:33
Zimdaleah22:33
ZimdaleI've only seen a few as bad as ambassador was. Mostly what I found was a pile of consulting jobs that I wasn't really interested in22:34
cmaloneyYeah23:21
cmaloneyI've seen a lot of "your background is impressive, but your princess is in another castle"23:21
ZimdaleYeah that's no fun :(23:39
ZimdaleI recently had a "Host this big long coding challenge and keep it hosted, and we'll get back at you if we like it or not" just to never get back at me23:39
