Well, FORK YOU AND THE PACKET YOU WERE ENCAPSULATED IN! This is just priceless ... I am going to send the guy a note and find out where he is working these days :-) Doug Luce wrote:
This person obviously didn't understand the security implications associated with handing out your public SSH key.
Also, to those that have been asking: the semi-automated test environment was dismantled about the same time we filled the position, so we don't have it available to go through.

Doug,
Don't tease - you absolutely owe us the full text of the response from the fellow who was upset about your asking for a public SSH key as part of the interview process.

I rely on recruiters to funnel applicants to the company. I also use Monster and jobs.perl.org to do the same. But I don't rely on them top do much weeding.
These days, I used semi-automated remote testing to find the good guys. I put very little faith in resumes, and do not use them to evaluate candidates. This has worked out extremely well. I imagine that this process is not suitable for many positions, or for cultures that are different from Telerama's.
Check out the job posting at https://doug.telerama.com/admin_job.txt
In particular:
DO NOT SEND YOUR RESUME at this point of the application process. If you do send your resume, we will assume you did not bother to carefully read this job posting, and we will not consider your application.
To begin taking the tests, please send your public SSH key to jobs@telerama.com along with your email contact information. Sending your SSH key is the only way to signal your interest in this position. Please do not send a resume, cover letter, or other plea.
The last time I posted this, I received 200 total replies. 151 contained resumes, 52 contained public SSH keys, 4 contained public PGP keys, and 1 contained a private SSH key.
One further response expressed hostility toward the requirement of a candidate's public SSH key in order to be considered for a position.
