[quote=svelte]When companies give a salary range, they typically use the higher number as bait…they’ll try and start you off at the lower number (which isn’t too shabby, granted).[/quote]
Last month, employers posted more than 365,000 job openings for IT workers, the highest monthly total since September 2019, according to IT trade group CompTIA. The positions highest in demand include software developers, IT support specialists, systems engineers and architects.
The demand has been attributed to all sorts of things. During the pandemic, businesses that had been slow to adopt enterprise software began rapidly catching up. A tidal wave of productivity software, conferencing and collaboration tools, and e-commerce tech flooded the world. The same was true for consumer tech, with video game development, entertainment tech and social platforms booming.
Anyway, I finished hiring my 4 mobile engineers. I have 1 floater position left either android or ios. Hiring was suppose to complete end of February. It’s middle of July….We basically gave a comp package halfway between the San Diego and Bay Area to the person here in San Diego, and the high side of what would be a normal SD comp package to people that will be remote out of Sacramento, Texas , and Tennessee
