Several interviews with very few solid (or high quality) experiences. It's becoming a bit of a dumping ground for recruiters running out of ideas. Especially frustrating are the folks that don't seem to understand what "remote" means.


That's why I've been saying that there should be a tag for GLOBAL_REMOTE which means/infers is up to you go to the office or not, and you can be anywhere in the world (like Gitlab)


"Remote" means the job is 100 mi away, and you will be given the opportunity to work from home 1 day a week after a year on the job. Oh yes, and we will pressure you to interview with this client because we really need the commission money.


Remote also means you need a US visa, of course.


Case in point: I had scheduled a call yesterday with BibliU (who posted in the June Who's Hiring) for today, and their person was a no-show to the call. No email, no phone call, just a no-show to the video call. That could have been for any number of reasons, but the lack of communication on behalf of the companies posting in the Who's Hiring threads now has increased significantly.
