When soft skills aren't the point, Hackermeter proofs developers for pure mad coding skilz.

At T324 we have production staff candidates do a programming test. We could save their time and ours if Hackermeter, part of the YC freshman class, had already tested, rated and published their skill level. Since our production staff works closely with clients, we'd still have a long way to go to qualify a new employee, but at least we wouldn't be wasting the time of people who don't have the technical chops we need.

It's a cool idea; we'll see if it flies.
