Easy way to never get a job.
The market is very competitive right now.
True.
It's such a weird time, though.
The market has the strongest availability of developer talent right now that it ever has, largely because C suite executives have bought the snake oil that AI is doing to solve all their problems.
The 'fuck around' timer is ticking fast, and the 'find out' phase is not going to be cheap.
This is a great time for employers like me to remember that employees have long memories, and not to push our luck.
I give jobs.
Can I have one?
Currently, we have no open positions.
When we have, we simply look for old projects which people have done and ask them some basic programming questions in interview.
As for the interrogation, if the cops call me instead of a hiding oversmart ass, I will answer them about my 'statistics' of employees!
Yeah and how many applicants do you have a day? Hundreds? Tens? How long is your average posting open?
Cause I do interviews as well - the candidates are many and the positions few.
