I say this as someone who's been accused of having a poor attitude on many an occasion, but when you say the following...
> And will continue to be harder and harder as long as utter morons do the screening and hiring.
> They could easily save millions of dollars in marketing, research and development by JUST running decisions by me and having me nod in approval if it sounds good.
> You incompetent idiots.
I have to ask... Are you 100% sure it was because of django and agile skills?
- mahmud 16y agoIf someone told me they worked for my major, and very successful competitor, I would pause to ask them "doing what". The guys didn't even bother.
- bhoung 16y agoClassic case of thinking that being right should be all that matters? With interviews and hiring it all comes down to the first impression...
- HeyLaughingBoy 16y agoNot knowing anything else about the situation, I tend to side with him. It's probably not that the people he talked to are morons; it's more likely that they just don't care about anything not immediately in front of them. In a large corporation this wouldn't surprise me, but in a startup it does. I'm sitting here in a large (US$4bn sales) corp doing a job I didn't initially interview for. I told my interviewer that the job they wanted me for didn't sound like what I wanted to do and my interests were elsewhere. Instead of just blowing me off like those guys did, he sent me to interview with a different team that was a much better fit. That's giving a shit! Apathy kills.
