So your salary + $1? How much better? I'm curious. I'd probably go through this for maybe 50% above market rates.

  Not sure! I guess it depends on how much homework.

  Insane. Let’s say it’s half that and you make $100k a year. You wouldn’t put in 2 hours for an extra 25k/yr? I mean this isn’t a lottery, and hopefully you’ve reasoned there will be a high probability of getting hired; say 50%. So then the expected value of your time is $6.25k/hr. Go, take the moral high ground, and don’t do the homework. That helps rational minded folk achieve an even higher hit rate.

    I'm already at top dollar in my area and have been for years. Maybe that's why I despise it so, I have nothing to gain from the trouble. I haven't had to do a cold interview since 1999. There are much better and less humiliating ways to get top dollar. Work your ass off and build reputation is the biggest one. If you are a company and you have to call a recruiter, you're already behind. Putting people through that stuff just makes it worse.
