On Choosing a Job
Ted Neward writes about an email he received from a guy, who interviewed for a position as architect. The story and questions in this email are interesting as are Neward’s responses. However, what stood out was this quote from Ted Neward:
For starters, Shane, kudos to you for sticking to your guns, and for figuring out really quickly that this was clearly not a place you wanted to work–a lot of developers have a mentality that says that they need the company more than the company needs them, sort of a “job at any price” mindset.
It fits nicely with a previous post of mine on Good Programmers vs. Bad Programmers. For many reasons this quote fits perfectly with my exprerience as job hunter, but also from observing the people I know.
