 |  Engineers saddled with unpaid work to get jobs …and it's getting worse Crooked employers force developers to work for free by dangling the prospect of a job. Wired said that engineers say getting hired can mean days working on unpaid assignments. Nearly a dozen engineers, hiring managers, and entrepreneurs who spoke to WIRED describe a situation in which technical job applicants are treated like dirt. Take-home coding tests used to be rare, used only if an employer needed more proof. Now, interviewees are regularly given projects that are supposed to take two to three hours instead of days. https://fudzilla.com/news/58521-engi...rk-to-get-jobs |
