Yeah, sounds like they want a clone of the last guy who quit on them because he found a better position for more money.

It used to be you had to show an attempt to hire local help before giving a job to a non-resident applicant (at least that's what the lawyers told us). Companies that had a specific non-resident in mind would run ads that were so specific nobody would qualify but the person they wanted to hire.

yeah, that's sort of what I was thinking. Hell, I'd settle for a developer that could (a) think and (b) give a crap. In 25+ years I've learned that, yes, you have to have some ability to handle technology, but if cannot learn from mistakes or you don't care, it just doesn't matter what buzzword you have on your resume.

Is the salary per yr or per month ? If per yr for that much, I think they are just marketing not hiring. ;)

Heh.. if you're graduating into that salary band, that's not bad at all really. Just depends where in the UK you are. In Northern Ireland, that's the kind of money they pay for a developer/engineer with 3 years competent experience. We're cheap (intelligence economy) labour, on your doorstep ...which sucks :/

Ooops, just not changed my signature :) I actually have 2 years experience. I also agree that it isn't be a bad salary (or wasn't) but it would be difficult to live off that kind of money round here, I strugggle after paying my car insurance and running costs and I am fortunate I dont have rent etc :)

A music critic hey, well I tried saying I was an Engineer a few times but got backed into a corner about what sort of engineering :( Fortunately I am on the dole now and that seems infinitely more respectable :P

Worked well. If you got a bright one it broke the ice and she knew you had a sence of humour. If you got a dumb one, you could have fun telling her: - How difficult is was to get a meaningfull criticism into 25 words; - How you were going to have to give it up because it was costing you a fortune; - etc.

You mention "she", that reminds me of a time when I think I talked to a girl once, well there was definately long hair involved so I am assuming it was a girl :P

In my experience lots of companies do this. First round they advertise a ridiculously specific list of skills, and won't accept anything less. After abject failure the second round has a healthy dose of reality added. All it achieves is wasting their own time. The annoying part is that if you apply the first round then they may not consider your CV the second time round, so you have to guess which phase they are currently in.

I was thinking the same thing. It's probably part of the H1B requirements.
