This is exactly right. It's not just that the firms can choose among all the world's remote devs, the reverse is also true.
I've been turned down when offering remote jobs to devs who found something more attractive, it happens and the market is a two way negotiation.
- mech422 5y agoYeah - I've stopped in the middle of the interview process when I found out the 'remote' position required 25% (or more travel). Now I just pick up the phone "not interested unless it's 100% WFH"...Doesn't seem to have slowed down the recruiting calls.
- alfiedotwtf 5y agoAlso take into account the network effect... Every recruiter that calls me, I'll only pass onto friends if it's remote because I know nobody will even consider onsite. There's a hidden filter effect happening right now that's not being considered.
