@shtooova Hey Steven, I'd say a week is not that bad. The maximum I've spent looking for developers is 3 months!! Unfortunately, we don't have a job listing service. I don't know if we'll have it in the future or we'll cover NYC. But FreshTalent is a great tool to evaluate the developers once you've found them. So do give it a try!

@t_swap sorry I meant to say almost a year for the perfect one. The latest one lasted just until last week! I need quality. Nothing out there
@shtooova ah I see.. That's sad.. Talent these days is both expensive and rare. Do you mind sending me an email at admin [at] freshtalent [dawt] co? I can try to find some help for you.

@shtooova have you evaluated to outsource the position, or hire a remote developer from another state? Everybody is looking for talent in NYC

@leonelmore yep. I need in house.. So I can be on top of them, be agile and get results right away.
Thanks @jjude for hunting this. I am aware that there were several assessment tools out there and we've tried most of them over the past few years. All of them had a slight bias and disconnect from how we actually hire developers in our company. As a bootstrapped startup we were also looking for an affordable solution since hiring is a constant activity. We built Fresh Talent to overcome some of the limitations that we were facing. I hope that a lot of startup will find this useful as well.
