Inspiration

I was inspired by how useful Glassdoor is because it includes so many interview experiences from real people.

What it ideally would do

Users can sign in and view posts that include information such as:
Accounts of interview experiences at specific companies for specific jobs
Examples of the questions asked at these interview
Whether the poster received an offer or not

Users can also make their own posts.

Since posts are on the blockchain, the reviews will persist even if the site gets taken down or if the companies get upset about their content. This helps to ensure that coverups will not happen.

Additionally, users can give Diamonds to posts if they found them helpful. This incentivizes users to post well-written and informative posts.

What it actually does

Users can sign in using DeSo Identity. Then they can put in information for a new post. Then the post that they wrote is shown on the next page.

How we built it

I used Flask for the backend and HTML and CSS for the frontend. I used the Python SDK for DeSo and several tutorials to help me build the app. The DeSo Identity login code and basic setup for the Flask app come from Bitclout Python Login/Identity Example.

Challenges we ran into

I had a hard time finding my seedhex and then my progress kind of slowed to a halt as I got tired. I had never worked with DeSo before, so I had to read through and piece together info from the documentation and various tutorials.
