8 hired through @proofzme so far:
5 at startups, including Omnisavant and HighOnSwift
3 by us
(2 of them paid gig work for founders)
14 more got jobs on their own. They practised in mock interviews on Proof and wrote about their work while they prepared. 3 of them had been laid off after years of experience.
There are two ways into a job through @proofzme . of the 8 jobs, resume was never shared for any of them.
1. Build it. A founder posts a role with a small real project. You build it and write down why you built it that way. The project is your application.
2. Get pulled. You log your work on Proof for weeks, with the why behind it. A founder reads those logs and reaches out to you first. You didn't apply.
Pandidharan got interviews this way: founders read [23 days] of his logs and asked to talk.
133 people wrote on Proof this month. About 19 of them write the why: the trade-off, what it cost, what they weren't sure about. We keep showing them how, one log at a time.
Logs and a built project show how you think, so the interview is about work you've already done.

best hiring approach @Radhakr08781352 @proofzme @0_main_engine
bonus: India gets to flaunt the open source contribution tech muscle :)
For startups that have open source projects, I’m increasingly hearing that before posting positions they just ping top contributors to see if they can hire them
Those contributors proved they know how to do the day-to-day work in ways better than an interview would prove. Plus they know what the product does, are motivated to help etc
Wishing you a very Happy Diwali! 🪔
May this festival bring new ideas, meaningful progress, and brighter beginnings.
Keep building. Keep learning. Keep innovating.

You dont need a resume for this software engineering internship position.
Log for the next 10 days and get selected.

4 regular Proof users got jobs in the last 2 weeks.
What they had in common: they wrote down how they think, daily, before the interviews. Two also did mock interviews on Proof.

Microsoft is offering exit packages to about 60,000 people.
You can't control the headlines. You can control 3 lines a day: what you built, what broke, what you'd change.

Tech Update:
AI models can hide messages inside images using something as simple as building heights.
Another AI model can decode them just by looking at the image.
The surprising part? They weren't given a shared codebook.
The placement group has 214 unread messages.
Your own progress has zero lines.
Proof is a daily log: what you decided, got stuck on, got wrong. Founders read it instead of your résumé.
Now an app. 3 lines, 2 minutes: play.google.com/store/apps/d… #ZME

PHP just dropped emergency patches for two critical vulnerabilities. If you’re running PHP, now’s a good time to check your version and update.
A little prevention now can save a lot of panic later.

Critical PHP bugs are in the news.
Me, checking my final year project: vulnerable.
Also me: never deployed. Safe.
Next time, write down what you checked and what you found. Two minutes: proof.zeromaintenanceenginee… #ZME

Chennai rain gives you three things:
A holiday.
A power cut.
A perfect excuse.
Use the first two for a 3-line log. Keep the third for next time.
