GitLab declines applications very quickly without any detail. I of course understand that their may be some department of labor politics involved "Don't tell the applicant the reason" but it sure is disappointing. My advice? Be careful with the apply with LinkedIn button. It probably makes the application look ridiculous and unworthy of a decent reply.


Thanks for your comment!

I apologize if you had a poor experience and were quickly declined. Input like this is invaluable to us so that we are able to improve our candidate experience for everyone.

Unfortunately we're not able to give feedback to every applicant, as we receive hundreds of applications each day. We always let applicants know if we won't be moving forward, and our goal is to one day be able to give feedback to everyone.

Thankfully, our applicant tracking system, Greenhouse, integrates really well with LinkedIn and shows us applicants' full LinkedIn profiles.

Hi @chloe, can you hire in Spain? The country guidelines say no, but the country appears in contract_types.yml?

thanks!

How come gitlab employs so many people from Portugal, but shows Portugal as a can't-hire country?


Although we have current contractors in Portugal, unfortunately at this time we do not have an entity or payroll solution to hire more employees there. As we expand our company, we continue to explore in creating new entities and payroll solutions so we can hire more team members in additional jurisdictions. You are welcome to keep a close eye our country hiring guidelines, should this change in future: https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/faq/#country-hiring-guidelines


We do our best to be able to hire from anywhere, but sometimes we are not in control of the limitations in place. At this time, we have reached the maximum number of people we can hire in Portugal and are actively looking for solutions that will open up more hiring for us and the wonderful citizens of Portugal.


I was going to ask the same about Brazil.


It is for the same reason as in Portugal. You are welcome to keep a close eye on our country hiring guidelines, should this change in future: https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/faq/#country-hiring-guidelines

When is such an awesome company like GitLab going to get serious about compensation and actually fix their calculator for regions outside of SF? I know firsthand that this is preventing many experienced people from even bothering to pursue opportunities there.

It could just be that the tax and labor rules are complicated for remote workers in France, that doesn’t mean it is on the same level as North Korea.


Indeed there are different reasons for not hiring per country. From the jobs page: "Each country has unique rules and regulations affecting a company’s ability to conduct business in that country, as well as the employability of its citizens."

Gitlab's compensation calculator produces some uncompetitive results if you want to live in small towns :(


Where did you even find it? The compensation page has a section heading for it but I couldn't find an actual calculator anywhere, just a big formula.


https://about.gitlab.com/roles/engineering/developer

If you scroll down about 2/3 of the way, you'll see it.

It's not competitive for me at all. I'm right beside Vancouver (Canada) where living costs are about 95% the same as Vancouver, but if I enter that, It says my salary range would be considerably less than I earn now. This seems like a really cool opportunity and I want to apply, but my family can't afford the hit (I'm the only source of income we've got and this place is crazy expensive). Kind of a bummer - it's hard to find jobs doing cool things and also earning decent money.


Gitlab also will not negotiate on salary at all. I got through to the final round of interviews (round 6 of 7) and then HR let me know they'd changed how they calculated salary for my location, it dropped by $10k. I had wasted my time because at that point the salary was just too far below what I needed, even though I badly wanted to work there.


I was really interested in applying recently, until I saw what their interview process entails, and laughed. I can understand "hire slow", but 7 rounds of interviews is way too much to ask of candidates, and indicates a navel gazing culture I want no part of.


Yep. Just reading that in the prior comment was off-putting.


7 round of interviews for a junior dev position? Sign me on. Heck, even big 4 do not do that many rounds.


I am a python/ML/Data science kind of person who likes to learn a lot. Is there anything for such a profile?


GitLab is filled with people who like to learn a lot! Most of our engineering roles require Ruby, but definitely feel free to review our current vacancies to see if there are any that interest you, and remember to avoid the confidence gap :)
