#Vsrativacancies. "In the requirements they wrote everything that they had ever heard of", as well as ageism, total avarice, taboos on leadership and working as a family. The latest autumn selection
Greetings! It’s #vsrativakansii again. Today is the last portion of the autumn trash from employers, which triggers the people of Haiti. There are more and more offers with strange requirements. It is not clear whether employers became less attentive towards the end of the year, or candidates became more irritable. However, in today’s selection, as many as 10 positions with different levels of attractiveness were collected.

Ageism in action
Recruiter Alyona Kashchuk is surprised by job descriptions in Telegram.
«Trash in job descriptions. Monitored job descriptions in Telegram channels. It is already difficult to surprise me with something in the professional sphere, but Telegram channels with vacancies always «give something up». The main points that I note when reading job descriptions in tg:
you can read the canvas of the description and still not understand for which position a candidate is needed,
the age of the candidate is indicated in the job requirements (colleagues, are you serious?)
the job description contains vague information about the work schedule and many other details.
Maybe my eye is so picky?», she asked and added screenshots.
Work is like family
Project Manager Taras Khariv shared a story that reflects a candidate’s desire to work in a certain company. «Recently advised a Middle developer. We worked out the desire for a further movement vector, supplemented CVs, taking into account recent experience, analyzed vacancies for requirements, drew up a plan to close „gaps“. We also went over the main interview questions. Later, I receive a message,» Taras wrote and attached a screenshot of the correspondence to the post.
Work without annoying habits
«How do you like these requirements for candidates? Apparently, they have an office without a smoking room,» asked Yuliya Semenova, Employer Brand manager. She came across a job that discriminates against people. that soar
The developer is too cheap
Developer Yuriy Tkach said that a friend sent him a vacancy where React Native Developers offer a salary of 8,000 — 12,000 hryvnias
«Well, dear VicVent Studios, I have only one question: does the salary of 8,000 hryvnias include a free trip in 2010, when it was still adequate? Because now it sounds like an invitation to a charity marathon: «Program if you can!», he noted .
«That is, you are looking for a person who: 1. Knows modern technologies. 2. Works independently without «mother» over the soul. 3. Knows how to develop UI/UX, which means that he does not just code, but also thinks about the user. And now seriously: you offer a payment that does not allow the developer to buy even the same device on which he will create your «simple mobile application», — Yuriy is indignant.
And he adds: «Salary of a React Native Developer for 8,000 UAH? To buy a laptop, you need to work for a year, and if you still have to eat and pay for the Internet, then the laptop will have to be leased. Your 'flexible schedules' need to be flexible enough that a developer can work three jobs at the same time to survive.»
He urges developers to agree to such conditions! «You are worth more! If everyone starts working for pennies, we will never see normal wages on the market,» assures Yuriy.
No leadership
Olena Teslenko, Senior QA, is also outraged by the job description. She published part of the job description in which the candidate was bluntly told that there was no leadership position.
«How was it before? The programming language was written immediately in the job title. As in developer vacancies, because it seems obvious that just looking for a developer is a game, who will open all the vacancies in a row and learn which language is needed. Now, for some reason, it has become unfashionable. Just QA Automation or QA Automation Lead. Well, ok, I’m not lazy, I can open the description, but oops, in most vacancies for some reason they consider it unnecessary information and not a word in a long description, instead, a wild mix of competencies for both manual lead and auto mechanics,» said Olena.
She adds that a huge number of jobs labeled as Senior Manual QA/Lead/Manager in the job description include a requirement to train the automation team and improve the automation framework.
«But today I got a vacancy, after which I couldn’t resist and share it with you. A very famous company that everyone knows, so I won’t write the name, is looking for a Lead Quality Assurance Engineer. I’m opening, because it’s exactly what I’m looking for, one of the first points of the requirements is 'Solid experience as a Software Quality engineering lead or equivalent position looking after multiple products, experience in providing product input on business process flows and scenario mapping for business solutions', so everything fits. But below is the requirement to have extensive experience in automation, to be able to apply programming best practices and a long list of which tools one should have experience with, but I don’t see the programming language. Somewhere out of 5, I notice that it is written about languages: „Experience using git SCM tools, GitHub or Bitbucket, or similar tools, proficiency in at least 2 different programming languages, preferably JavaScript and Java“. It is surprising that any would suit them, the main thing is that there were at least two. Are you not funny yet? Well, wait, it will happen now. the description ends like this: Leadership Role: No. So who are they looking for? What was the author trying to tell us? In 10 hours there are already 100 applicants, who are all these people? Manual QA Lead or Automation QA Lead? Maybe just Automation QA?», Olena wonders.
«They wrote everything they had ever heard about in the demands»
Inna Mykytyuk, Frontend Developer, found a vacancy with strange requirements for beginners.
«Trainee/Junior Frontend (Web, Fullstack) Developer — Architect… software engineer (think of the position yourself). Well, tell me, isn’t this absurd? One gets the impression that everything they had ever heard of was written in the requirements. And this, so that you understand, I blocked one of the three parts of the requirements. For some reason, it seems to me that such a company has 5 levels of interviews in addition.
«For this amount, I can only tell jokes at rallies»
Senior .NET developer Alex Dobrynin is surprised that the lady is offered only $3,000. Has it become so fashionable to joke now? 8+ years for 3-4k gros. Where are we going? For this amount, I can only tell jokes at rallies. «Am I just a goddamn grandmother’s grandson?» he asks and adds a screenshot of the correspondence with the employer.
Handyman for 15,000 hryvnias
Strong Junior Front End Engineer Ivan Stashko found a vacancy that, in addition to a strange combination of specialties, also contains a ridiculous salary.
«Know, everyone who was born before 1994, you have few chances»
Recruiter Khrystyna Sabol found an eJit vacancy on Djinni.
«The company, which positions itself as international, considers candidates under 30 years of age. Because everyone who is 30+ probably has different mental nuances. This is my guess. How can you publish such a vacancy? Reputation? Prohibition at the legislative level? No, we don’t know and we don’t want to know about it. I am sure that after this post, the recruiter who posted the vacancy will quickly fix everything. But you know, everyone who was born before 1994, you have few chances,» she said.
«Freud’s pretext, or how a company is looking for a slave»
Recruiter Kristina Dobosh posted a vacancy with strange requirements, and also with a mistake.
«Oh, these torments of the manager. Freudian conditioning, or how a company looks for a slave. It’s not OK for me to be on the phone all the time (because I want to be alone sometimes), to stay at work until midnight because I want to have time for myself, to schedule meetings for the sake of meetings, to call after 8:00 pm because I have to to discuss some things that could be discussed the next day as well. I accept the fact that sometimes overtime is necessary. Because my goal is not only money. But I don’t accept the fact that it is cultivated in the company,» she said.
