Recruiters guide for new Coders
ewanvalentine.co.ukMy first own post to HN, go easy on me! Thought I'd try to give a bit of balanced advice for juniors :)
I found your writing a bit hard to follow, and therefore didn't get all the way through.
This probably could have been 3 or four posts. I think that you should try to stick to only a few ideas at a time. Maximum of 3, and they should all be related directly to your title.
Which leads me to my next bit of advice. Titles and subtitles. "Recruiters Guide for new Coders". Is that a guide for coders to get recruited? or a guide for recruiters? Seems a bit confusing.
"By this point you notice a few problems with some recruiters:" is a very awkward heading, it is far from concise and far from strong. A heading should be punchy, even with your conversational style writing, keep your sections punchy and then elaborate in the text.
Hope this helps you out with future posts. I do like your conversational style, and with a bit more editing and focus, I think you could make massive strides in your writing.
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated :)
