The "ruby is strictly required" copy on the apply page is pretty off-putting. I'm not a ruby expert but it's not fucking rocket science.

Filled out one of the applications a while ago to see what would happen. Got back an email confirming my submission. No further contact (yet).

Was hoping to at least get something from a human.

Thank you very much for sending in an application. I do apologise for the delay in responding to you. We are receiving a large volume of applications at the moment.

If you can send an email to jobs@gitlab.com with your name and the position that you have applied for I can take a look and find out what the status is.

Thanks again for taking the time to contact us at GitLab!
