Android/C++ developer Max Makuta posted a letter from an employer offering a full-time job as a junior developer for $150–$200 per month. He asked the community for their thoughts on the offer, and the IT community happily agreed.
«Imagine that you receive a letter like this in the mail. I would be interested to hear your thoughts on this,» Makuta wrote and published the text of the letter. By the way, the author does not say whether the letter is real.
In it, the developer is informed that the candidate has successfully passed the initial selection for the position of Junior C/C++ Developer. The position involves full-time remote work and 40 hours per week. The remuneration offered by the employer is $150–$200 per month.
In the comments to the post, IT users are discussing the proposal.
Engineering Manager Vladislav Mykhailyshyn notes: «It looks like a scam to get people to click on the link. In fact, I doubt that such an offer will interest anyone. There are better jobs for that kind of money.»
Frontend Engineer Snezhana Ivanova calls the offer «the perfect vacancy if you’ve been looking for a legal way to sell your soul… in English.»
«Well, it doesn’t even pay for fluent English,» notes Dmytro Tymoshenko, Front-End Developer.
Middle .Net Developer Pavlo Sjomko says that if there were no jobs at all, he would accept the offer. «If there was a chance, I would have trashed them on LinkedIn,» he notes.
