- mugenx86 13y ago>Positions available in: New York City, San Francisco, London, Los Angeles, Boston, Sydney, and Hong Kong. 22/hour in Sydney? Half of the salary will go to rent and bills.
- OafTobark 13y agoAll of it will go towards rent in SF and NY (if Manhattan) unless they share rooms and split costs a lot
- aegiso 13y agoTo put this in perspective, as a starving entrepreneur with 15 years of experience, $22/hour sounds like a godsend at the moment. I'm not complaining or ignoring that this is below market rate. But it's good to stay humble.
- rulesofthetrade 13y agoWow. I'm 21 years old, no degree, with only some web design background and A+ certification in Silicon Valley. I got a job making ~$20/hr($42K/year salary) with 3 weeks PTO and tons of other benefits. Someone with 5 years of experience, hell even half that much experience can make atleast $30/hr where I live.
- carlosrt 13y agoDefine "some web design background" and "A+ certification in Silicon Valley"? What could you build prior to getting the job?
- rulesofthetrade 13y agoJack of all trades. PHP/HTML/CSS. I knew my way around it. I've done plenty of .NET back in my teens too. Just saying, entry level jobs pay more.
- YuriNiyazov 13y ago::shrug:: There are plenty of people that have the impostor syndrome and will take the gig.
- nwh 13y agoTo put that in perspective, that's the same as making sandwiches at Subway in Australia.
- JamesMcMinn 13y ago>You have 4 -5 years of web development experience. This is not the same as 5 years of rails experience. They are not looking for developers, they're looking for people to teach a crash course in web development.
- testing12341234 13y agoIt's even less than $22/hr because the 40 hours per week here doesn't include work outside of the classroom such as grading papers and projects, or "Assist students outside of class as necessary.".
- alttab 13y agoThis seems like a really, really fun class to teach. I would definitely do it, just for fun. But I wouldn't do it for money, because the pay sucks. Those with the skills to teach it right are out doing it in the private sector and making more, and still having fun.
- gremlinsinc 13y agoHow is this 22/hour? It says 105,000 per year which @ 40/week is roughly $50 an hour.. Also, I have 2.5 years web dev experience, and sadly only earning $15 an hour currently, not too many Rails/Laravel jobs here in Dayton, OH.
- talos 13y agoI think it was a typo initially -- the ad originally read $10,500.
- talos 13y agoUpdate from poster: they changed it from $10,500 to $105,000.
