I am not sure about diamonds but I was involved recruiting software engineers in London City a few years ago using the best recruitment agencies they were back then on the market. Let me tell you, it was a disaster. I do not know whether this was specific to UK, industry or time period but it was a joke. I do not see a reason why broader pool of potential candidates is worse then geographically limited selection, if permanent working from home is on the table.
- justinclift 3y ago> it was a disaster Was the testing just leetcode crap, or was it based on actually being able to get stuff done? ;)
- charlieKilo 3y agoThat's the problem - it was just for senior developers, not rocket scientists. Most of candidates (curated by agencies) have poor coding skills, soft skills non-existent. So we didn't even dream of people who can get the job done and be independent.
- justinclift 3y agoHmmm, bad salary range for the location maybe? If it's something you can share, do you remember what the salary range was roughly?
