I don't get your comment. Paying $500 to reach many candidates is not expensive in headhunting and they didn't claim to have a problem finding enough clients. $50 would make vetting more necessary and cover less of it as well. (SE did respond to specific questions about the legitimacy of ads when I asked them.)
- throwuxiytayq 5y agoIn my country, $500 is more than an average HR employee earns in a month. A proposal to pay this much for a job posting would be laughed away.
- smorgusofborg 5y agoIf 10% of engineers in your country end up working for a foreign firm, wont SE make more money and have less costs vetting remote postings? There's plenty of opportunities they left on the floor because they didn't like the best deals of that business, sure they could have grown and lowered their average return.
- Ekaros 5y ago500$ for post on single site. And there is probably half-dozen of them around... That really starts to add up in long run.
- smorgusofborg 5y ago$500 is a very low estimate of how much value a company steals from society every time it adds an additional posting to get people into its permanent hiring funnel and uses them more to tune that funnel than for serious consideration. Interview 10 candidates and pick one or demonstrate that you at least are willing to pay 1/10th the costs of your folly.
