I Need To Start A New Blog: "Job Listings That Depress Me"
Notes:
- Lead-in line is two sentences, but has the “direct” “client” “requirement” trifecta.
- “Salary: Market” - or, in other words, we’ll tell you when we’re ready to tell you. Preferably after finding out if you were lowballed previously.
- Must know Flash, Dreamweaver, and Illustrator. And Powerpoint! Apparently they’re looking for one person to act as an entire team of workers with different careers.
- You must have worked on a large government-like website to be qualified. So they want people who have designed the shittiest big websites out there.
