Double Standards In Tech Recruitment

Double Standards In Tech Recruitment
Tech companies: "Our revolutionary AI will transform your workflow and boost productivity!" *five minutes later* "How dare you use AI to solve our fizzbuzz test? That's cheating!" The corporate hypocrisy meter just broke. They want you to buy their AI products but heaven forbid you use them to bypass their archaic hiring rituals.

While Redditing I Openned Console And Saw This

While Redditing I Openned Console And Saw This
Ah, the classic Reddit ASCII Snoo recruitment technique. Nothing says "we need developers" like hiding job ads in the console where only the curious nerds will find them. It's like leaving cheese in a mousetrap, except the cheese is a job opportunity and the mouse is a developer who can't help but inspect every website they visit. Twenty years in the industry and companies are still pulling the "How do you do, fellow hackers?" routine. Gotta respect the hustle though—beats those "we're like a family" job listings.

The Vibe Coder: When AI Ate Your Job Description

The Vibe Coder: When AI Ate Your Job Description
So they want a "Vibe Coder" who "orchestrates code through the power of AI" and "vibes their way to a brilliant front end product." Translation: We want someone to type prompts into ChatGPT while we pretend we're revolutionizing development. This job description screams "we have no idea what we're doing but we've invested too much in AI to admit it." Soon they'll replace "Senior Developer" with "Prompt Engineering Guru" and wonder why their codebase looks like it was written by a caffeinated squirrel with a keyboard. The funniest part? 42 people actually applied. Desperation truly knows no bounds in this economy.

Get Free Labor

Get Free Labor
Ah, the classic "job interview disguised as a coding test" trap. Two full days of implementing multiple bullet firing, collision optimization, weapon modes, particle effects, high score tables, and UFOs... all for the privilege of maybe getting hired. Translation: "Please build our entire game for free while we watch and decide if we like you enough to actually pay you someday." Next time just ask candidates to fix your production bugs while they're at it. Nothing says "we value your expertise" like extracting 16 hours of unpaid labor before the first handshake.

Targeted Advertising

Targeted Advertising
Oh, the sweet irony of a company desperately seeking a graphic designer while displaying their job ad in what appears to be Microsoft Paint's finest handwriting. Nothing says "we need professional design help" quite like a billboard that looks like it was created by a kindergartener with a digital crayon. The perfect self-fulfilling prophecy – they've proven their need beyond any reasonable doubt. Whoever approved this masterpiece deserves either immediate termination or an unexpected promotion for the most convincing job advertisement in history.
