lol if you don't just sit down w/ the candidate and ask them to talk about their previous work because you're not confident enough to spot a bullshitter from a mile off

yes heaven forbid we try to filter out people who cannot code from a job where they are expected to do that. whiteboarding is not at all representative of day-to-day programming though, it only needs to be a good enough test to weed out fraudulent applicants. you still have to establish that the candidate actually understands wtf they are doing and aren't just regurgitating a rote memorized answer.

the uk's economy is centralized on london to an absolutely ridiculous degree so the pay is garbage compared to what you'd get in any sane western country because employers have the workforce over a barrel. to say nothing of the rent. learn german or something and go work in germany instead.

being a 401k fund manager has got to be the sweetest racket in existence "so every year i get given a gigantic pile of money that i can skim 4% off the top of and i can piss away anywhere up to half of that pile every year and people will continue to eagerly shovel money at me? GOD drat *inhales a swiss roll made entirely out of cocaine*"
