I've started responding to recruiters with this list of requirements

Company Requirements

I'm definitely not looking for work. However to provide some helpful guidance for hiring like-minded engineers, I would only consider working for a company if it met these requirements:

  1. Concrete, measurable plan to increase the number of women and minorities in engineering roles.
  • Commitment to using and contributing to open source.
  • Collaborative, friendly atmosphere where pair programming is encouraged.
  • Meaningful work with clear linkage between work and company goals.
  • Demonstrated commitment to ethical business practices, e.g. B corp certification.
  • Commitment to career development including yearly conferences.
  • Demonstrated commitment to work/life balance, e.g. 40-45 hrs/week.

Thanks,

Adam Linkous
