In this week's episode of DevNTell we will be joined by Aleksa Stojanović who is the founder of Contribo. Contribo helps organizations turn real projects into paid gigs and connects them with developers who can prove skills by building, not resumes.
Viewers of this DevNTell will get to meet Aleksa and watch as we explore the major problems Contribo is tackling, why outcome-based gigs can fix hiring bottlenecks, and what they're learning as they test their first pilot.
