Shaman Linavi posted:at least for this place it was more management/business interview then anything i've done for sdev positions. not even like, system design stuff. just how to spin up vms and whatnot on azure (which i dont know much about lol). from what i gathered, a lot of communicating with customers and troubleshooting their environments. idk i guess maybe i dont know what a "architect" position even is? was it a solution architect? i've specifically heard that term as an amazon role that talks to customers and tells them which of the ten thousand aws products are the ones they want

How much of my  at the possibility of doing support for a place that apparently does the platform for some adult streaming site is just me being a prude?

one of my bosses at my old job used to work at a webcam streaming company. he said he used to have a desk near the bathroom and he could hear people go in there and jerk off all the time.

they extended an offer  unfortunately they came back with what's basically my current salary. it's a good thing I anchored high; according to glassdoor their offer will put me *above* the payband offered for that title, and if the project they're hiring me for goes well the future promotions that come from it will be lucrative. so now it's time to ponder over the weekend if i'm gonna bite on this or not. pros:
cons:
at the end of the day though our division works as a sort of revolving door where consultants will take jobs with customers and then come back after a couple of years. i've seen it happen multiple times. so if this turns out to be a bad move i can probably hop back once things get back on track here. the salary is the only thing bugging me. i'm going to counter it up about $10k. i'll probably walk if they don't accept it PIZZA.BAT fucked around with this message at 15:25 on Aug 21, 2020 |

Companies that haven't updated their job posting boilerplate since the whole COVID thing make me  . "On-premise Gym with shower/locker rooms" sounds way, way less enticing than you clearly think it does, guys...I mean: I'm an old, lazy, and enormously fat piece of poo poo so it was never especially enticing?

Schadenboner posted:Companies that haven't updated their job posting boilerplate since the whole COVID thing make me Hmm I should check mine out. I'm pretty sure we haven't updated, but I don't think that the individual offers have it either. Though we should be talking about remote work through 2021 even if you decide on an offer with relocation. And should be talking about building out satellite offices to make the density lower.

voiced my many concerns on the hire with too much experience but it didn't ring with my co-worker. they were in charge of making the hire. it took over a week and a half to make that decision to send candidate one an offer lol the reason was, paraphrasing here, "we couldn't pass up an opportunity to hire talent for cheap" then earlier this week our team gathered for a half-day chill session at the local park just to gently caress off and not stare at a screen and the real reason came out "i wanted the person who would make my life easier" aaaagggggg it was so selfish will see how the next couple months go putting someone who is hardware-focused in a software role, remotely. the new hire is the gooniest of goons. i hope you are reading this, friend

Check Indeed. I think recruiter spam is at a pretty low level right now. No one's really hiring.

Indeed is a pretty garbage platform (from both sides - I've posted jobs on Indeed and just gotten an absolute flood of resumes from people not even in the ballpark of qualified), but there are legitimate jobs among the junk.

I applied to a ton of positions at a bunch of FAA(M/N)Gs and heard back from a few. Had a few tech screens for different positions and did some live interviews where I wrote code live on codepad, another had a take-home, and one had timed hackerrank problems. Thought I bombed the live/timed coding. At best I was either barely squeaking in under the time limit with a robust solution, or ran out of time and had some incomplete solution or only handled a handful of inputs. Still got invited to do a full round of interviews from the ones I've heard back from so far. Some of the interviews involved more coding, still thought I wasn't doing great in the live coding. One place (and my favorite position I've applied to) is moving really fast and followed up about an hour after my last interview and wanted to "sync up". Friday I had an hour interview with my potential boss, and then another hour with his boss. I've been told to expect to hear from the recruiter today for that position. I guess I either did better on the coding than I thought, the coding wasn't actually that important, or I made up for it in the whiteboard/personality portions.

That all sounds really positive, good luck! Although just be ready for the 'we're super interested, let's talk immediately' to be followed by being completely ghosted for no apparent reason.
