Sorry, you have to pass multiple rounds of interviews and get approved for the job before we tell you, which is not wasting anyone’s time when you find out it’s substantially less than you’ll accept. Why can’t we find people to fill this position? No one wants to work anymore.
I think at least New York now requires jobs to post a range. I haven’t even seen bullshit like “$50k - $500k” - maybe the law was written strongly enough that they can’t loophole it that way.
Had an old boss that wouldn’t put our stack in JDs because he felt any truly good programmer could pick it up. I mean, true, but it’s not efficient hiring, or effecient business practice.
I would actually like to work at a place like that. I’ve worked with a very wide variety of languages and platforms and I don’t much care which one I use now. I’m much more interested in what the project is than in what tools are being used to produce it.
Just kidding - nobody has interesting projects any more.
Well, we had one stack. There was no variety, it was that he didn’t want to put it on JDs.
And some places have interesting things, but unfortunately not many. I’m working on data provenance protocols and distributed identity management using ActivityPub at the moment, and I would consider that very interesting, but super-boring to others.
Writing that programming languages is the thing you will be working on. Not what application you will be doing because you’re just a tool, not human being.
Been doing the job search and it’s frustrating how bad most of the job postings are. There’s so much filler nonsense.
I pretty much just want to know like
Some postings are like “must know Java, go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, or rust” and I’m like do you use all of those?
don’t forget that lying on your resume is just… outright explicitly expected by everyone
i love the job market

Doesn’t it cost them money to interview people? What a way to waste time
Yes but if they do find a poor shmuck that wants the job, they can hope he’ll undervalue himself and ask for even less.

? What do you mean
Writing that programming languages is the thing you will be working on. Not what application you will be doing because you’re just a tool, not human being.
Ah ok I understand. Still it’s nice to know the preferred and used languages in a company.
Yeah but that’s what you will be using not what you will be doing.
