How to Apply
Email staff @ our domain (hackthissite.org) with a brief but convincing reason why we should pick you to work with us. Please do not directly message staff to apply. Emailing this address makes it easier for all of us to see your application and helps centralize communications. Put the position you're applying for in the subject ("Frontend Developer" or "Backend Developer"), too, please.
We are far less interested in resumes and far more interested in examples of your skills. Github projects, Gist or Pastebin pastes, whatever. We want to see what you can do, not who you've worked for. This is a volunteer position, after all, so professional experience isn't as relevant. Make your application brief, but stand out. Less than a page, with links to concise but good code examples.
