I applied for a remote engineering position.
A few days after applying, the job posting was updated to include a specific hiring area (while still stating "remote").
A couple of weeks later, I received a rejection email. It stated that my current location did not match the one specified in the job posting. To clarify, it was a US-only position, and I am located within the US, so a visa issue was not a factor.
Firstly, the location was updated after I applied. Secondly, have you considered that people move for jobs? Please evaluate my skills, not my location, especially if it is less than 100 miles from your target city.
This was my first and last application to GitHub.
No questions asked.
