I finally went through some of my school things and found my notes from the class where I wrote the final last year and gave myself a reasonably low score. Good times. :lol2:

It should be illegal for job listings to not include the pay range.

I imagine it creates time wasting (interviewing only to find the pay too low) :(

Or to have an overly broad pay range

Complete lack of a wage range is annoying, I won't even bother applying if its missing.

An attempt to trick people into poor paying jobs and/or a sign that whomever you've hired to put out the job listing is incompetent and should be fired. Either way not a great way to telegraph that your hiring.

It's a Dickensian party -- as shown by the rampaging disease and rising poverty -- so you know it's going to be winter!

So it looks like my old college (Graduated this year with honors btw) is getting new tech because I just found some of their old community PC's left out for free with all of the perks like Office Suits attached.

Score.
