Lazy Recruiterslife
For some reason Phoenix is filled with JSP-using companies that could care less about using Ruby or PHP, because “Damnit! JSP is what we use! And our developers are too old to try out anything else.”
Since, there are so many companies in Phoenix that think that JSP is the end all-beat all, recruiters are constantly searching for JSP developers.
In job websites, using a search to come up with JSP developers brings me up. I’ve worked with JSP developers before, and I’ve designed around their code…but I AM NOT A JSP/JAVA/TOMCAT/JAKARTA DEVELOPER. I am a web/graphic designer. I design user interfaces, graphics, and do things that make the front-end of a website functional.
So recruiter…get off your lazy ass and look a little deeper. I have put your email on my shitlist and I have flagged you as someone who could “care less”.
Example:
Hi Matt,
We noticed your background in our searches and thought that you or someone you know would be interested in this great job opportunity for a JSP Developer / Programmer, located in Tempe, AZ.
Wait…it gets better…
I probably got the email because the company is looking for someone who memorizes hex colors and can program object oriented code. For the jury, I present exibit A:
* Designing and developing advanced web interfaces using JSP & DHTML
* Working with product managers and operations in requirement specification, testing and release planning
* Architecture design and implementation
What we need from you:
* 3 or more years JSP / DHTML development experience
* Experience with web user interface design and frameworks
* 3 or more years HTML, CSS and JavaScript programming
* Strong understanding of object oriented analysis and design
* We would also like good Java and SQL experience
Ok.
1. HTML is not a “programming language”
2. That job better pay PRETTY DAMN WELL.
3. I know of only one man that can fill that job and do more. He’s not the best graphic designer, but he can pretty much do everything else on the list. Jason Warner
I editied this because I was actually thinking of including Aaron Post on that list but decided not too because I don’t know if he’s done JSP…but thinking about it further I am sure, just like Jason, he could pick it up with no problems.
