Reply to comment by ChappedPappy in Job listing platform Indeed lays off 2,200 employees by marketrent

There’s a lot of issues. My favorite one to talk about is jobs listed as “Entry Level” per their literal search feature, then when you check the job description it requires 3+ YOE.

Please please please do not say “yeah but they mean entry level to that company” because it’s a really bad argument and purposely deceptive.

It’s been my experience that “entry level” actually means “be experienced, but expect shit pay.”

any site that relies on the honesty of hr/recruiting types is doomed to have its posting quality reduced to this point

I completely agree with this complaint, but that’s employers abusing the platform. It should totally be updated. I guess I’m just wondering what’s better?

You should have a few years of internships by the time you graduate

Edit- - in IT/SDLC, idk the other fields as well.

Idk where you’re based out of, but this is simply not true for most jobs/careers in America.

I work in tech staffing lol. Not all, but plenty of cs grads showing internships/working on projects by graduation.

Internships are far less common for non-programmers. Tech companies still need staff in every business area.
