Is this what you get paid as a SQL developer after 5 years? 2-300k p.a?
 
LOL the job section is always so funny :) I know junior SQL people earning more than that.
 
Senior? With that salary?

I think you need to change the job description or the salary
 
I agree with you guys im just posting what was sent to me...

Fair enough...Understand it is what the company is requesting.

I honestly feel like companies are exploiting people because they know the economy is tough at the moment.

This is a market. Companies can do what they wish to do. If the candidate agrees to the price , then its not exploitation.

What sets salary levels is candidates saying no thanks to low salaries. Then prices are forced to rise (as they have been doing for DB administrators and developers) and companies that play low-ball simply get no-one to work for them.

In this case , they are offering a well below market related rate. When they haven't been able to hire anyone competent after 3-4 months , they'll raise their offering or not have their database sorted out.

Point is people are forced to accept jobs like these due the bad economy. It's a struggle for grads to get jobs and obviously the government does nothing about it.

The only guys that pick and choose is the experienced ones. Otherwise you are pretty much screwed.
 
The quality of people applying is directly related to the amount offered
 
No wonder everything is such a balls up. Willing to let someone with 3 years exp loose on a db with important SARS audit info. How could that possibly go wrong.
