This is not advice but as someone who does a lot of contract work, it is repugnant to me that a "client" even consider the option of simply not paying for services rendered. By your own account, those services were rendered in sat

This question comes up every so often. All I can say is money talks. I know money isn't everything but I'll be damned if I ever go through another battery of interviews, code tests, behavioral screens etc just to find the position

This is a standard resume-farming strategy that dev shops often use. They don't actually have a current opening but are hedging their bets for when a need comes up. In the meantime, you get to fill out a long application and do a take-

I understand that. I’m not asking for these jobs and small startups to match FAANG level pay. I just want transparency. There’s a big difference between $50k and $150k and both are still well below FAANG pay. Just be upfront is what I’m say

These remote job aggregator sites have been popping up everywhere lately but virtually none of them solve the problem I face routinely - transparent compensation. Companies often post stuff like "competitive pay" or "market

I am an Asian who was definitely discriminated against during the college admission cycle. It really really sucked. Luckily out here in the "real world", a lot of that discrimination flips and I benefit from being an Asian in tech

Yeah, OP is a low effort poster. He's not "seeking advice", that's a pretense of spamming HN. OP - reddit is a better place for this low quality spam.

Completely agree. In a just world, we would also name names. I want everyone to know exactly who is pulling the scams.

There is nothing true about it. Try hiring devs at min wage and report back what happens...

The best way is to have a developer friend/colleague evaluate the candidate's skill on your behalf. Preferably someone who manages other devs or has had to hire devs previously. There is really no practical way you yourself can ma

There would be if people cared. No one does. The only people not surprised by any of this is Asians. I not only had to be better than my peers to get into Cornell, I had to be MUCH better. So it goes. It could be worse...

To be fair, people are not born with a built-in frame of reference. I used to think I was good at math due to hard work/dedication but I have since met people who worked far harder than me and still were not nearly as good at math. It

A good way to gauge a founder's (first-time founder) likelihood of success is to see how receptive they are to this list of advice. As a contract developer, I find that many many founders consider themselves the exception to the points
