Joining a PIP factory. Rate my cash reserves
Looks like Spotify (at least in Boston) is all about Java. Any thoughts on if it’s possible to get a role there without Java experience? (I have php/python primarily) #Spotify
you’ll be fine
Lol, why post this on my thread instead of making a completely different post where people may see it more?
Yes. Source: I have ran technical interviews and hiring committees.
Thanks! Any tips around that, especially coming from php or python? Also, is it safe to say that a candidate is likely to be down-leveled because of lack of Java in that case?
It’s hard to say if it will affect your chance. It’s always a case by case. Business critical roles, yes. Non business critical, they’ll be much more open. Culture and diversity of thought/background plays a bigger part in who we decide to hire than if they know Java or not.
