I'm a friendly, non-dev, cisgender guy from NC who enjoys playing music/making noise, hiking, eating veggies, and hanging out with my best friend/wife + our 3 kitties + 1 greyhound.
One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
Here goes... these are my most used emojis for Slack:
I have the typical ones for confirmation (👍,✔️), those that are for celebration (🙌), and some that are meant for good idea or 2nd that (💡,☝️).
No so sure what all this says about me personally, but I think it means that I'm generally positive and encouraging.
Emojis never lie.
They absolutely tells that you are generally positive, encouraging and validating people.
