What an incredibly self-righteous and unnecessary response. Everyone hates recruiters, fine, I get that. It doesn't change the fact that like you, they are also trying to make a living. They also have friends and family that give a shi

Short answer: Yes. We interviewed one of the first graduates from http://www.makersacademy.com/ and we were blown away at how much potential he showed after only 12 weeks of training. We made him an offer however he ended u

One had labeled him as "arrogant", a judgment he believes has resulted in automatic blacklisting for jobs through that agency. I've seen a hell of a lot worse in regards to recruiter notes on particular candidates. That bei

£28k approx for someone with 2 years of experience in London is reasonably average. It's entirely dependant on the language involved though. Ruby/Python/iOS developers for example, earn £45k on average.

I've genuinely never had a single person refuse to take part in our technical test or request compensation in return either. If someone refused or demanded compensation, I would no longer pursue said candidate.

Get an applicant-tracking system that stores CVs and the result of each interview (with detailed notes), so that you can compare candidates based on data. I highly recommend trello for this if you're a startup. It's free and it&
