Here's a concept I had a question about that I don't think gets discussed that often...
If a company were to offer a base salary at a mere third of the Google base salary for the same job, why should an applicant have to copy Google's depth of computer science abstraction in the coding interview?
Is the onus on the developer for even entertaining such a demanding question at a low pay, or does the current economy favor employers in such a way that developers have no other choice?
Or rather, is the knowledge of available jobs asymmetric enough to where employers can pay pennies, piss, and peanuts for A-level employees?
- JoeAltmaier 9y agoI don't see a connection between pay and the interview process. Should the company also make their chairs one-third the height? Have one third the whiteboard marker colors? Feed you one-third of a lunch?
- vorpalhex 9y agoMy willingness to jump through hoops is proportionate to how much I want to work with you. If you pay me well and treat me well, I want to work with you. If you're trying to hire me for 50% of market, my tolerance is much lower.
- JoeAltmaier 9y agoThen the filter would be "The skills of a Google Engineer, but can't get in there so might work here". All others need not apply?
- kodr 9y agowell, if you interview for a nurse position, you shouldn't have to pass the doctor interview.
- JoeAltmaier 9y agoOh. I thought the statement was "for the same job".
