For some background:
<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;sockpuppet.org&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2015&#x2F;03&#x2F;06&#x2F;the-hiring-post&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;sockpuppet.org&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2015&#x2F;03&#x2F;06&#x2F;the-hiring-post&#x2F;</a><p>Part of the idea is that there are some great devs out there who don&#x27;t have the resume to &quot;just email the company and get a phone screen&quot;.<p>I think if you look at their history with MicroCorruption (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;microcorruption.com&#x2F;login" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;microcorruption.com&#x2F;login</a>) you&#x27;ll see that this isn&#x27;t just a recruiting tool - it&#x27;s supposed to be more of an interesting programming challenge, something you&#x27;d want to spend time on whether there was a hiring company at the end or not.<p>Long term, I hope that after StarFighter gets more history and credibility with companies, they actually <i>will</i> reduce or remove technical parts of the onsite interview in lieu of StockFighter results.<p>I spent time with MicroCorruption, and I plan to spend some time on StockFighter, and I&#x27;m not looking for a job.
