Are you a software developer currently in the job market? If you're considering becoming a developer in a startup, there are a few things you should keep in mind. Startups are generally all about being nimble, scrappy, and able to pivot on a dime. That means being willing to try new things, learn quickly, and work long hours without complaining (too much). Within our team, we have a rather straightforward process for hiring engineers. During the interviews and technical challenges, we are looking to assess if the candidates have the necessary technical skills based on the role. While this part is important, we also spend a lot of time and effort trying to understand if the candidate has the right soft skills and mindset that can make them thrive in a startup setting. Here we've compiled a list of characteristics that we typically look for in developers (as a startup), going beyond purely technical skills: https://apyhub.com/blog/what-startups-look-for-in-software-developers
