Interesting and nice:

Forget uploading resumes or filling out forms on some job board.
Backend-as-a-service company Parse is inviting potential hires
to apply via its Parse API. In what initially looks like an added
barrier to entry, the company is hoping its cheeky and geeky move
will attract the sort of developers who think in JSON.

All that’s required is your name, email address, a message describing
why you’d be a great fit and an array of URLs. Oh, and be sure to set
the Content-Type as application/json, but I’m sure you’d have done that
by habit, right?

In a highly competitive market for developers, is Parse making it harder
for people to apply? For the right fit, the company might be making it easier.

I wonder if the additional effort is even worth it..
