job application via ssh.

Yo, i am a frontend dev. And i am applying for a Frontend job. And the only way of doing it is via ssh.

"Apply by connecting to join.5monkeys.se via SSH and follow the instructions. The application process takes less than a minute and is entirely text-based. We know you share our love for the terminal!"

And i can't connect.

Response: fzSftp started, protocol_version=11
Command: open "anonymous@join.5monkeys.se" 22
Command: Trust new Hostkey: Once
Error: Could not connect to server..

i tried in the git bash.. also, with no luck.. what am i doing wrong here? Haha, maybe i should not get the job if i can't even apply for it.

Their instructions are vague, they didn't say which SSH subsystem to use. FileZilla only uses the SFTP subsystem, which they don't seem to support.

Based on the entire process they clearly only seek skilled developers who already know this stuff.
