@AnamikaKha1 @Gutgutgoose 🏆🏆

the grind never stops @UseLitmus @Gutgutgoose

@haileyinsf glad you liked them :)

tried arsicault for the first time and it does indeed live up to the hype (ty @UseLitmus team for dropping them off!!)

croissant connoisseurs @UseLitmus asked if they could drop off arsicult pastries at the @UseCorgi office how could anyone say no to that

doordash started as four guys hand-delivering pad thai. tomorrow we’re delivering free @ArsicaultBakery pastries and demoing @UseLitmus to startups all across sf. call it an homage 🛻🥐

@ShaiviRau @UseLitmus @ycombinator Would love to try this!

Hiring sucks ... well it used to. @UseLitmus is now live, backed by @ycombinator.

We’re friends because of tech recruiting. Traveling to conferences, crashing out after superdays, and celebrating offers—long before we were co-founders, we survived recruiting together. But quickly after, we realized how little the interview process had actually prepared us for the job. The engineers around us who stood out weren’t the ones who had spent months optimizing for interviews. They were the builders who could collaborate, communicate, and adapt in the face of uncertainty. The hiring process didn’t measure any of that. We built @UseLitmus (YC S26) to let the work speak for itself, so you can hire the ones who last. It’s live today at litmushiring.com! Launch video here: x.com/ShaiviRau/stat…

while I have yall here - we’re hiring engs to work alongside us during the batch! take the first round on Litmus to get added to our pipeline: litmushiring.com/a/0e15d9575741… if you’re currently hiring, take the assessment to see what good interviewing looks like.

We applied to @ycombinator 13 hours late from our Columbia dorms after four consecutive all nighters. A little over a month later, we flew out to sf for our interview with @snowmaker and @gustaf. Now, we're <1 month away from moving to sf to start the batch in June! S26 applications are due tonight. Apply! Late if you have to. It's not always the worst thing. ycombinator.com/apply (Attached is our actual submission vid, filmed at 5am and fuelled by a lot of dining hall coffee)

Book a demo today!

your next great hire is probably already sitting in ashby. the problem is finding them without weeks of interviews just to separate signal from noise. that’s what we built @UseLitmus for. book a demo: litmus.build

Founders/Devs—What sucks the most about eng hiring? 1. Too much noise. Who’s acc worth interviewing? 2. Context switching across tools 3. Low signal technical interviews 4. Hours reviewing + debriefing vote & comment if I missed any :)

as a founder/engineer, what are your biggest pain points with technical hiring?
