abstract:
Hack a job in 42 hours and live in Switzerland afterwards.
---
body:
On the 1st of November to 3rd of November the 2019 edition of
**Hack-a-job** will take place in the
[Hacking Hotel Diesbach, Switzerland](https://hack.digitalglarus.ch/hacking-and-living-in-hotel-diesbach.html).
## Hack a what?
We are a team of hackers running the [Data Center
Light](https://datacenterlight.ch) at [ungleich](https://ungleich.ch)
and we think that hacking to get a job is the right way
of finding someone fitting to us.
## How does it work?
At Hack-a-job you have one weekend to show your skills. You will be
given the choice of three different tasks and you choose one of them.
You then have 42 hours to do your best to solve the task. During these
42 hours, we will coach you and direct you into the right direction.
During that time, food and drinks will be provided.
After 42h you present your work and in the afternoon of the
Sunday, everyone will get direct feedback from the jury.
## Who can apply?
At this Hack-a-job edition anybody can apply, who can start working in
Switzerland without special work permits. This usually includes
* citizens of EU/EFTA countries
* Swiss citizens

for more details.
Unfortunately we cannot offer anyone from
"third states" to participate, as this has complicated and partially
impossible constraints for hiring attached. If you are a creative mind
and can convice us that you can be hired nonetheless - this might be a
good chance for earning first points.
You should be at least 18 years old to participate.
Go [to the application page for registering!](https://survey.ungleich.ch/2/).
## Who gets the job?
**Up to two people** can stay and to join our team.
The criteria for evaluation can be seen below.
We promise to be fair, however joining Hack-a-job does not mean
you get the job.
### Degree of success
How much of the task did you get done?
Is it solved
* not at all
* partially
* mostly
* fully
?
### Cleanliness of the solution
Is your solution
* documented?
* easy to understand?
* using best practice?
### Creativity of the solution
Did you think out-of-the-box? Are you employing smart solutions?
### Sustainability / Unix Philosophy
How much did you think about running your application for longer?
Did you follow the unix philosophy?
### Communication
Work is only worth something, if other team members can work with
you. How do you communicate with the mentors?

* A 1 year contract with ungleich, likely to be extended
* A monthly pre-tax salary of 2'500 CHF
