I think Q was successful in one way, it flushed out the gullible, who in their right mind follows the guidance of someone who you can’t question or verify their identity. Q could be anyone, and nothing has come true. Q has about the same credibility of a fortune teller.

The trick is to have a hiring process that looks at skills and intellect, rather than a resume. Too many times young people limit themselves by what their degree says, one of the best analysts I ever worked with was an art history major. I encourage my team in the hiring process to look past the resume and background and find talent, regardless of field. I once recruited a Project manager at a party who I knew got laid off, their company closed. She was in accounts payable with no degree. I figured someone who deals with accounts payable pays attention to details, schedule and tracking, all great PM skills. She is still with us to this day, probably doubled her paycheck overnight and she works remotely from their vacation place most of the time. You just have to look at it differently .

It’s market, I used to pay $22 an hour for a guy in India, he probably got less than half of that. Now the offshore resources are anywhere from 40 to 70 an hour, and often need two offshore to do the job of one here. So $100 an hour here is starting, probably lose 1/4 within 2 years to higher paying gigs, but more often than not they come back since the stock and bonus are sweet. Of course where I live a decent house starts in the 600-700k, but if you can live in a more reasonable area and work remotely, best of both worlds. Why the kids coming out of high school don’t get this, blows my mind. There are plenty of great jobs in the US, they just aren’t driven together the right education.

Our company nets over 10B a quarter, so money isn’t the problem. Finding good people is. And agree on you in terms of work ethic, again, no questions foreigners have no problem putting in the time, raising a lazy generation for sure. But if you bust your chops for a few years, climb the ladder, then reaping the awards.

We always do, the last one was straight out of college with no PMP. You would be an easy hire at the top end of the scale. As for remote, I have people in NV, TN, SC and FL. Silver lining of Covid was to prove you can work from anywhere.

But in Texas every time it’s a tech company, a bunch of Libs move in, look at Austin and Round Rock. He’s playing defense instead of offensive

Actually, that isn’t true, I forget which on but they have stated it’s safe for pregnant women. Let’s make sure we stick to facts here.
