hard questions for recruiters
Even though some of these questions don't affect me directly, I consider them excellent indicators of whether a company is somewhere that I want to work at, because I would not like to work at a place where I wouldn't be able to be proud of.
(In approximate order of liklihood that a company will make me sad)
Does the company offer trans healthcare? How do you stack up against the https://www.hrc.org/hei/hei-scoring-criteria checklist?
What is your parental leave policy?
Would I be the only woman developer on the team?
What is your policy/approach/guidelines on contributing back to open source software projects?
What is the team like? Number, composition, specialties? Do they do pull requests or push to master, what are their favorite conferences, is there an on call rotation? :)
