Just joined the tech cabal community. The site was recommended to me by a friend who lives in Lagos. I am currently based in the United States, but in the process of venturing into the Nigerian startup scene. I am still updating my profile so please bare with me.
I want to get an idea of the hiring process in Nigeria and how I can go about recruiting very experience developers with a strong Computer Science background. We've tried Jobberman as well as newspaper ads. The quality of candidates received was very poor. Is there a more efficient process that can possible weed out the really bad resumes.
Over here we can recruit from specific universities or attend career fairs with candidates that have been vetted. Does anything like this exist in Lagos? Please feel free to share your experience hiring developers in Lagos. I am going to post the role in this site shortly. We are basically looking for a full stack developer with a lot of experience using some of the common open source frameworks - Spring/Hibernate/MySQL on the back end and ExtJS on the front end. looking forward to any feedback I can get.
