In web development, we believe these 3 pillars are very important to a success of a project. We will select a developer who believes in them.
1. Deadline is extremely important
You must respect Project Timeline and milestones. Work must be delivered on time.
2. Good user experience counts
You’ve got an eye for detail, especially when it comes to design. We believe the site can grow exponentially if it offers a good user experience and that only comes with a good mix of design and programming.
3. Code with Passion
We’re looking for people who will dedicate time and energy to complete a given project and will feel proud about the accomplishment. Sharing ideas and finding most appropriate solution to a given problem, even if it defies what’s stated in the original requirement, will be encouraged in this project.
We’re also looking for long-term prospects as we have plans to revamp other sites in the group. We’d also be introducing more marketing features and interactive sections to our news site in the near future. So, if we love you for your work, we will consider hiring you full-time.
How should we communicate?
During selection: Introduction chat and Interview on Skype/Google Hangout
Project Brief: Skype call to go through all the project scope and requirements
