Forum Overview :: Rants :: I don't, however there are some clear flags

[quote name="Senior Mysterio Analyst II"]Keywords that jump out, as minimum qualifications, in the face of a dedicated Designer role: a. <b>Engineer</b> b. <b>Bachelors in CS</b> (See above) c. <b>JavaScript</b> (See above) Sorry for Lara, but she didn't meet these. Don't bullshit in(to) an interview. Her confusion is that the opening asks for <i>two</i> different jobs, which is heavy, and I guess she thought "no big deal". However, they profile, point-by-point, someone specifically going from idea, to mockup, to applying feedback, to working prototypes, all the way to production web apps. It's on her to identify the parts that <i>don't</i> match her skillset. Realistically, I agree that this is a bit 'unicorn' as it would be an entire <a href="http://randsinrepose.com/archives/seven-plus-or-minus-three/">team effort</a>. Hell, she could have brought that up, and chewed out the interviewer for Frankenstein postings. It's not a one-way process, here! Maybe <i>they just are</i> cruel tech czars, and looking to overwork a web dev to death. <i>Or</i>, maybe the company has a shitty recruiter/HR bot slapping together all-in-one posts. <i>Or, even yet,</i> making impossible hiring asks to then staff with desperate H1-Bs, or they've already signed a deal with outsource partners (claiming that nobody local would match the impossible roles). Those are all definitely bad news for the state of tech. Then again, so is somebody being dishonest, and complaining that they bombed out of the spot that was a bad fit.[/quote]
