null | GhostBond | null | These companies are not really having trouble finding talent.
I've been interviewing the last few months. It's obvious that they're not taking their hiring process even remotely seriously.
- Some companies insist on a tech phone screen, they will reschedule multiple times on you without notice, then call you on 10 year old cell phone that you can barely understand what they're saying on - happened to me 3 times now.
- Several companies have called me on a hard-to-hear-anything speakerphone.
- They'll often fill the room with completely different kinds of people. One will try to ask you esoteric "trick you" technical questions, while another is from management and judges you based on whether you seem likeable and confident. Hint: you can't tackle hard trick questions and seem likeable and confident at the same time.
- A lot of phone screens will ask me nearly impossible questions that people who work on the project wouldn't know.
- They'll have a panel of people asking questions, all with different opinions, so that you'll always offend at least one person with your answer and it's impossible to do otherwise. In one someone asked me how I preferred to access the database, I said I preferred to use straight sql, I've used hibernate and can use whatever the project is using, but hibernate made things more difficult and take longer in my experience. This pleased one person, while another person sort of snorted and rolled their eyes. To hire you, everyone would have to agree they like you, so...
I see the same job descriptions over and over again, and the recruiters I talk to seem to back me up - a lot of companies are interviewing then don't seem to hire anyone.
I don't know if they're deliberately setting up the process to avoid hiring anyone, or if it's simply collapsed under the weight of sociopathic management that's tried to make everyone fight with each other - grinding everything to a standstill. But I'm in my 30's, companies are much much less interested in actually hiring people than they were any time when I interviewed in the past (except the recession). | null | 0 | 1491253240 | False | 0 | dfsbyjb | t3_637m7q | null | null | t1_dfs4ghw | null | 1493767714 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

null | psyanara | null | I work in the US and my employer gives 30 days of vacation a year (earn 2 days a month to a max of 30) with comp time as needed. Sick days are earned at 1 day a month with no max.
I currently have 156 sick days stored up (I use vacation time whenever I get sick, because I can); and a full 30 days of vacation. All that coupled with generous holidays (e.g. ~3 weeks for Christmas) plus a 2:1 retirement matching makes working 40 hrs weeks pretty darn good. Some of my coworkers do 35 hr work weeks. Health plan is really good too. Haven't been denied on anything ever, and I frequently have health issues.
What are the cons? Our location is outside large cities, so finding qualified candidates is hard. We have a flat no H1-B policy. My immediate management wants developers in seats at the office, so frequent telecommuting is a no-go. Due to location and benefits, pay is not near SF or NYC levels.
My point is, just because some industries and companies in America suck, not all of them do.

Now instead of being rubber stamped, "computer programmer" positions must consider other factors to show that you are specialized enough, including pay rate. The Googles of the world pay plenty and will have an easy case. Infosys et al, who pay ~$70K per year to their H1Bs that do a lot of simple back office outsourcing work, are the ones who gonna have a lot of 'splainin to do.

There are two categories that programmers get admitted under: Computer System Analyst and Software Engineer. CSAs *cannot* program. There's vague guidance that you can do some, but it's at the interviewing agent's discretion how much is too much so the advice I've been given by lawyers is say none.
Software Engineer is basically the same job description as CSA, but you are allowed to write code as your main job function. | null | 0 | 1491254096 | False | 0 | dfscpb9 | t3_637m7q | null | null | t1_dfs5x9u | null | 1493768073 | 3 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

null | irishsultan | null | The error you're making is that this isn't what the author wanted: a constant time function (in particular, the function needs to be equally slow when the two hashes differe in the first character as when they differ only in the last character).
Why would you want that? Because knowledge about where the hashes differ is an information leak. Of course it's much worse in case the passwords aren't hashed, and I'm not even sure if there is any practical attack on any hash function where you gain knowledge about the password by knowing the first character of the hash, but there is knowledge there, so you don't want to leak it, no matter whether the knowledge is usable or not. | null | 0 | 1491254455 | 1491254681 | 0 | dfsd0hh | t3_6344ep | null | null | t1_dfrztp8 | null | 1493768223 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |
