Finding the Best Engineering Talent

The world is a vast place. The best engineers are scattered in locations across the world. That is why we at PatchSchools believe that recruitment of engineers must not be confined to the location we are placed in (PatchSchools is based out of Chennai, TN, India). The technology and communication tools have so beautifully evolved in the past few years that remote working is no longer an impediment to productivity, but to the contrary, an advantage. That is the reason we have subscribed to services like Unfuddle, BitBucket and HipChat.

 

Remote working is being effectively used by various enviable companies like 37Signals and Automattic. So it is not something new. Also, I myself have been working-from-home (I prefer to call my bedroom-converted-office as The Lab) for the past 3 years. My own experience and the examples of companies I mentioned, has proved beyond doubt that Engineers love Freedom. Freedom to work from any location. Freedom to build a Awesome Company!

 

Note: We are recruiting Software Engineers only from India. This is a temporary-decision we have taken to keep our bookkeeping simple. Follow this blog for updates on our recruitment policy.
