I think a tad over is fine, but it should be somewhere in the same galaxy.

2019-09-05 07:53:38 UTC  

pretty much.

2019-09-05 07:53:42 UTC  

Not: 10 years experience, Masters, and every certification known to man.

2019-09-05 07:53:48 UTC  

Pay? $5/hr.

2019-09-05 07:53:59 UTC

2019-09-05 07:54:18 UTC

2019-09-05 07:54:41 UTC

2019-09-05 07:54:54 UTC  

must have 10 years experience in a system that is 4 years old

2019-09-05 07:56:12 UTC  

you aren't a real dev until you make your own time machine 😉

2019-09-05 07:57:04 UTC  

lol i wouldnt put it past someone to make that an interview question

2019-09-05 07:57:38 UTC  

>must have 10 years experience in a system that is 4 years old

2019-09-05 07:57:45 UTC  

I came across an application similar to this.

2019-09-05 07:57:51 UTC  

lol really?

2019-09-05 07:57:54 UTC  

The technology or vendor was only about 2 years old.

2019-09-05 07:57:59 UTC  

They asked for about 5 IIRC.

2019-09-05 07:58:02 UTC  

LOOL

2019-09-05 07:58:15 UTC  

It's like, uh... Alright?

2019-09-05 07:58:20 UTC  

I guess I'll go fuck myself then.

2019-09-05 07:58:31 UTC  

Time to devise that time machine Big!

2019-09-05 08:00:23 UTC  

lol you could probably meander some naiive concept of one.

2019-09-05 08:00:47 UTC  

most of those types of questions are to take a look at your thought process when problem solving

2019-09-05 08:01:34 UTC  

maybe something to do with acceleration and gravity

2019-09-05 08:01:51 UTC  

Makes sense. Explains some of those Google interview questions.

2019-09-05 08:02:42 UTC  

yup. how many quarters would you need to stack to reach the empire state building, or how many golf balls will fit in a school bus

2019-09-05 08:02:52 UTC  

you dont even have to get the right answer

2019-09-05 08:07:14 UTC  

Man, get this. My very first IT interview, and it was for an obscure position. The application was absolutely garbage. I pulled teeth, but found out they wanted a jack of all trades who could do Help Desk, Networking, and System Admin shit with Active Directory and Microsoft. The starting pay was $13/hr and when I asked what their max limit was it was $17/hr and for the COL of the area that's still garbage.

2019-09-05 08:07:54 UTC  

I didn't get the position, but it's probably because my expression came across as: "you have to be fucking with me right now."

2019-09-05 08:08:04 UTC  

I probably came off as snarky, lmao.

2019-09-05 08:08:11 UTC  

LOL rightly so

2019-09-05 08:08:42 UTC  

I'm like, bruh, for $13/hr you can go hire the McDonalds worker around the street.

2019-09-05 08:08:54 UTC  

sounds like a company trying to minimize their IT cost

2019-09-05 08:09:16 UTC  

Agreed. If it was an intern position then by all means.

2019-09-05 08:09:17 UTC  

like hiring an intern for intern wage and have him do 4 ppls job

2019-09-05 08:09:36 UTC  

If anything it's experience, but for an actual job?

2019-09-05 08:09:38 UTC  

You get what you pay for.

2019-09-05 08:09:45 UTC  

Man... Don't get me started.

2019-09-05 08:09:47 UTC  

I did that too.

2019-09-05 08:09:55 UTC  

or even worse, and illegal, hiring an unpaid intern for 4 ppls jobs

2019-09-05 08:10:00 UTC  

6-months internship for the State free.

2019-09-05 08:10:09 UTC  

LMAO.

2019-09-05 08:10:16 UTC  

theres more stringent regulations on unpaid interns than paid.
