Form for collecting web engineer job applications while providing an easy coding challenge to filter out the resume flingers

Primary LanguageRuby

Engineering Application Form

This is an experiment to make applying for a job a better process. It provides a low barrier technical challenge to allow submission of the application. Upon successful submission, an email is sent to the applicant and the collector of the applications for further review. Feel free to fork and customize.

I'm trying to apply through this thing, wtf!

You're probably noticing that the form isn't submitting correctly. OHNOES!

Well, that's on purpose. There are a few easy fixes that need to implement before you can successfully submit the form. Figure them out, and you're on your way to stardom.... kind of. Check out the source to get the full picture as to what isn't working right. Play with it locally for fun and profit!

Afraid of losing your entered text? Fear not, brave knight! If you're on a modern browser we store it in LocalStorage. Don't know what LocalStorage is? Well then, what is it you'd say you're doing here, exactly?

Should I submit a PR with the fixes? No.
