But developers know that they can learn on the job. So an offer of "half regular salary, but we'll train you!" is not too appealing. Many companies will just pay regular wages. So we're back to where we started.
- bambax 14y agoYou're right. What I meant is that companies trying in vain to find rails developers should hire generalists, regardless of rails experience (at a competitive, normal salary according to the skills/experience of the recruit). It seems companies only advertise for specific languages or frameworks; maybe they think they need someone capable of hitting the ground running, but if they spend a year finding them... it's pointless.
