I did their interview process a while ago and unfortunately did not make it past the trial phase. But I've been meaning to reapply and haven't seen any new openings in quite some time. Are they still hiring?
Code Wrangler is an SWE at Automattic. I think we’re still hiring some iOS and Android SWEs, but I don’t think there are any current openings for frontend/backend.
It's not the right time to join Automattic. We are actively downsizing.
Run from Automattic
What changed?
I didn't make it past the trial either, and what was unusual is that they provided detailed feedback about why I didn't make it. One thing to note is that when I applied it was not in response to a job posting. I just sent an email to jobs@automattic.com with a cover letter and an email.
