Local hiring notes

  • Candidates compare equity and remote flexibility closely; be ready to explain both.
  • Commute between north and south Bengaluru affects acceptance; note office location in the brief.

Our screen

Skills we vet for full-stack developers

Full-stack is a broad label. We pin down the real stack and the product stage in your brief, then screen for engineers who have shipped features end to end.

SkillHow we evidence it
Frontend (React / Next.js)Component design, state and performance on a real feature
Backend (Node, Java, Go or Python)API design, data modelling and error handling
DatabasesSchema choices, indexing and a slow-query story
Testing and deliveryHow they test, review and release
Product senseA feature they shaped, not just built

Sample interview loop

A loop that respects candidates' time

  1. 1. Recruiter screen · 30 min

    Motivation, notice period, CTC, must-have skills

  2. 2. Technical deep-dive · 60 min

    Past systems, trade-offs, depth on core skills

  3. 3. Practical exercise · 60–90 min

    Live problem or take-home review, never unpaid multi-day work

  4. 4. Hiring manager · 45 min

    Team fit, ownership, communication

Screening questions we ask

  • “Walk us through a feature you owned from design to release.”
  • “How did you debug a performance problem in the browser or the API?”
  • “What would you change about the last codebase you worked in?”
  • “How do you decide what to test?”

Questions

Can you hire for a specific stack such as MERN or Java + React?

Yes. Name the stack in your brief and mark which parts are must-haves; we evidence each on the dossier.

Do you hire frontend-only or backend-only engineers too?

Yes. Use the same brief form and choose the closest role title; the screen adapts.

Is Bengaluru too competitive for a new GCC?

It is the most competitive market, but also the only one with the senior depth some teams need. A clear employer story and a fast interview loop matter more here than anywhere else.
