Ask HN: Are competency based behavioral interviews a thing in your company?

We’ve been exploring ways to make our hiring process (for engineers, PMs and designers) more structured, particularly around behavioral interviews. We have a competency framework that outlines the key traits and skills we value in candidates, but a big challenge has been ensuring that all interviewers are calibrated and evaluating candidates consistently.It often feels like interpretations of...

Hyperswitch is on a mission to build payment infrastructure that serves billions of people at scale - a utility like water or electricity
True, still trying to fix that! Need to figure out how to implement 'show don't tell' with GPT
Thanks for the feedback (I'm a collaborator)

Also the visualise buttons get enabled as soon as you hit generate button for the corresponding block!

It probably comes down to how many have actually added their cards to GPay and Apple pay, best to experiment and check if adding paypal improves your conversions

How are you going about this currently? Have you integrated Paypal separately or do you have any other processor along with stripe?

Hyperswitch is free to use for the first 10k transactions of the month. After that it costs $0.04 per transaction. It is a payment switch that comes pre integrated with major processors. So as a merchant your business relationship with processors like Stripe or Adyen remains the same (I'm affiliated with this product)

I've seen some sites use Google maps API to suggest your exact address, pretty cool

I think there is a strong relationship between the average ticket size and payment experience. It is almost like it is the user's problem if the ticket size is high (hence the website need not necessarily invest in creating a good payment experience). Something like insurance websites.

The ones that really seem to think about the payment experience are the ones that have low to medium average ticket size and high transaction volumes. It is in the website's best interest to ensure each and every transaction goes through

Stripe's link has a similar experience
