hobbesmaster posted:those may be different levels of seniority for similar positions or something nah it's the exact same job, it's normal to see differences of 15-20 between agencies but I've never seen 35 before, somebody needs to hit their q1 numbers I think

How bad is working in AdTech? Glassdoor rating is a 2.7. Anyone pay attention to Glassdoor? Also they have no QA department which I kind of took as a plus. Rudest Buddhist fucked around with this message at 00:56 on Mar 11, 2017 |

I just got a call from a finance company that somehow included both "customers open new accounts" and "virtual reality" in the job description

The Management posted:lol wtf. a friend of mine works at a place that does this. as part of the application process, you have to give a presentation to the whole company on whatever subject of your choice. i reckon it's supposed to work as a cultural/personality filter, at which it presumably excels it's stopped me from applying there. adtech outfit, so no great loss, but the work sounds more interesting than at my current place so

dunno, i don't really have the experience to judge. this outfit are pretty open about it, and call it out very clearly on their jobs page and in ads, which is why it stands out to me. then again, i live in a tiny place in the rear end end of nowhere and this town is definitely not a tech hub so ymmv

I have to do a lot of presentations but I'm a designer so I have a portfolio I can show. asking someone to do an original presentation seems lame

Anyone pay attention to Glassdoor? glassdoor is full of complainers. salaries always skew low, and the reviews are a crapshoot. lots of 1-stars from angry, bitter fucks. lots of 5-stars from persons in the hr department. better to actually interview places and try to find back-channel references you might know via linkedin -- p.s. ad-tech is loving terrible because how the gently caress do any of these companies make money? trying to shave pennies off of businesses that are already penny-shaving is really unpleasant

also I kinda like the presentation as interview idea. at least then you can mostly control the interview instead of watching them type notes into their structured candidate feedback template on confluence

When I interviewed to be a teacher for Kaplan test prep I had to teach them a random thing I thought was interesting. I chose how to count votes using ranked voting schemes. But that at least made sense, since I was interviewing as a teacher to get a job as a teacher. How legit a presentation / teaching interview is probably depends on how seriously the company considers presentations/teaching as part of your job description. It's probably not as important in practice as whoever designed the recruiting process would like it to be.
