C# and C are completely different languages...

So I'm not sure what you mean when you say C#/C...?

So basically a C# and C Dev that can code everything from backend, middleware, frontend and various web related technologies.
Good luck.

I happen to have experience in C and C# though.

No location or salary, try again sonny

Obviously location is vital. Experience needed is also important.


I do have a question because I recruit people (but don't advertise on MyBB)

People do seem to expect accurate salary ranges.
For large companies this is easy to do because they have fixed ranges.

Smaller companies often dont have ranges.
Dev skills are in short supply so they have no idea how senior they will hire when the advertise.
So if they published a range the range would be huge and meaningless.

So how important is publishing salary ranges? Would you ignore a good advert if there was no indication of salary?

According to your experience do you receive more applications for salary stated or non salary stated?

I find it frustrating that good developers are expected to be fluent in front-end technologies as well, never mind be able to actually piece together a good user experience design. I rate myself as fairly strong in the UI / UX department, I'm more than proficient in back-end tech (C#, Java and Node.js) and I can write SQL queries that will make your brain hurt.

I know what resources like this cost (I have to employ them for my own business), so the middling salaries they often offer for these positions is an insult to the developers. Either that, or the hiring company is content with sub-standard work being delivered (which I detest).

I'd ignore any adverts with no mention of salary ranges. Most of the time, it is just not worth the hassle to go for all of the interviews and just to find out that the salary isn't in line with your expectations. What I've seen a lot is people advertising a position with a salary, and mentioning that the salary is dependant on experience.

The rules are simple:
* if you are advertising a job then you post the expected salary range. My current salary/package is none of your business.
* if I approach you looking for a job you can do whatever you want with the salary.

And yes, I skip over job ads with no salary indication unless something in the title or first two lines draws me.

Done the whole time wasting thing, never again. I don't see the point in having another two or three meetings only to get to the salary part at the end and realise they want cheap labour.

This is 80% money, 20% love baby.

EDIT: oh, and if you really want me to ignore a post mention the phrase "market related". Market related means nothing unless you are saying I'm "market average".

Thanks for the feedback.

The push back from companies publishing salary ranges is multi-fold

a) The ranges are big. Sometimes as much as R40k per month from top to bottom (of course different seniorities)
b) The upper end of the range bites them with existing staff who want a salary review because they ar below the top end.
c) Applicants believe they are in the upper end of the range almost regardless.

Having said that I would agree that companies could publish more salary detail.

My pet hate is Job Specs with a long list of skills.
In reality there are always only a few killer criteria and the rest are negotiable.
The negotiable skills are usually not separated from the killer criteria which either
- over-filters people or
- encourages the hiring of a jack-of-all and master-of-none
