How can coffee lead to an offer? 7 examples from IT specialists are strange and not only that

Headhunting in everyday life can be unusual. You invite candidates for coffee, but in fact it is an interview, writes recruiter Tetyana Kozachenko. She yelled about the unusual places for interviews that various specialists had. What did they answer her?

«On the street with coffee from plastic cups,» recalled QA Engineer Timur Zamisov .
«The customer invited me for coffee after handing over the project. After a couple of months, he changed his job,» Artem Deshitskyi shared his experience in Management and Technology Audit .
«I still receive rejections without interviews for trainee positions,» says Junior Java Developer Shayakhmetova .
«A friend invited me to his place for coffee once, and a week later I was working with him in that company,» said Delivery Manager Mykola Kalakuktskyi .
«"One careless sip of cappuccino — and you’re already in the state. It was necessary to take tea, it is less career-threatening,» — gave the example of Senior Delivery Manager from Intellias Denys .
„And I had such a situation. The company liked me and they immediately took me to show the office and get to know the team, although I said I wanted to think about it. Of course, I stayed. I consider it a useful life hack for HR and recruiters,“ recalled Human Resources Director Valeriya Redko .
„At the beginning of my career, my client called me to drink coffee. And it turned out that her husband has a large company and I was already working in this company after 2 weeks,“ shared Olena, COO of Prime Laser Systems .

Професії у геймдеві. Хто такий левел-дизайнер і як ним стати?

Ми продовжуємо нашу рубрику, присвячену професіям у геймдеві. Тема нового матеріалу в ній — левел-дизайн. Його вважають підвидом геймдизайну, але все-таки практично кожна студія хоче окрему людину на позицію левел-дизайнера. Адже у цій спеціальності вистачає своїх нюансів та особливостей. Розібратися з ними всіма нам допоміг досвідчений левел-дизайнер зі студії Fractured Byte Дмитро Нестеренко. Також він веде свій блог Game Designer Notes про геймдизайн в цілому, в якому розбирає багато цікавих нюансів розробки ігор.
