Clojurians Log v2

@davd33 @seancorfield I think also that if you have "senior engineer" type experience in other languages, or even just professional experiences in multiple other languages, you'd have a much better chance. I cut my Clojure teeth working for CircleCI, and was fully remote from day 1. That's not how Circle works any more, but I suspect that's more about rapid growth and needing to hire faster and more reliably than anything else. I think it might still be OK for an early stage startup job where there's an appetite to cultivate good people, or a large corp where they can afford to absorb the inefficiency.

Oh, and also experience working remote in your previous jobs, which it looks like you have

@seancorfield @j0ni Thank you for your advice!

I think remote + new to Clojure works well in two circumstances

If you can do the interview work in Clojure (and the interview itself is a good work test rather than being brain teasers)

And if either the company or you are senior enough that the additional onramping won’t be too challenging

We’re not currently hiring remote but we might be around this time next year so if you can keep those Clojure skills sharp we’d love to chat

Sounds good! Thank you @venantius I’ll practice my clojure muscles.
