    What do you want recruiters to know?

    What makes you think that the people who send you the tests are the people who look at the tests? It's usually a technical manager who looks at those tests, and the tests are extremely telling, and let me tell you - there is a good reason for them too. Once you've completed projects, tech...

    Camikaze - what?? :X3::X3: I'm giggling just a little - but it's a sad giggle. That is totally crazy. At least you know that this is not a company you want to work for, because what if expecting a proper rais is also seen as 'greedy". You dodged a bullet there imo

    ^^ And this is why at a certain level, an expert will establish a professional relationship based with reputable agents - several across the professional interests of the said expert.

    deweyzeph, Thank you for your response, much appreciated. 1) Yes, I understand your frustration with salaries.

    CamiKaze, thanks for your response. The pie is big enough for places like offerzen/angel.co/indeed/upwork and other models. Everyone has a different career path, not everyone wants to be in management, for instance. Offerzen has its place, and specialists still require specialists to find them.

    What do you want recruiters to know?

    I hear what you're saying, Kosmik, do I understand right that a developer would want, in terms of their career path, specifically diverse category experience? But for how many years do you diversify? I am seeing senior people who follows a set career path settle on a category after 15/20 years...

    Hi, Xrapidx, I love this comment because it absolutely echoes the frustration of many people in your field. I know exactly what you mean because I have access to the inmail of an IT guy on a regular basis. This is absolutely relevant and true. I can add to that the people who do not understand...
