Hmm, interesting, maybe I should look into the UK market then... Because I often see open positions in the UK segment on the company job boards, just didn't know if it's mostly fake ones as in NL and FR.
The ones I see coming up repeatedly on LinkedIn are real jobs, but for places with high staff churn - Bet365 in Stoke for instance have a voracious appetite for recruiting System Development Managers, mainly because they can't get anyone to stay in the role more than a month.
Yes, I have such thoughts. I'm building something constantly, have a history of attempting different projects, some of them got into startups fueled purely by passion and lasted for years, but didn't attract investments. Currently I'm working on MASS - Modular AI Scheduling System, basically it's a scheduler and package manager for AI-native applications/services. As I see a huge part of future AI as dedicated small fine-tuned models, local to user and on-site programs and services. But it's another story :)
Yeah, by all signs this is how hiring works (or actually doesn't work) right now. I have info from Datadog (France) that they don't hire anybody right now despite lots of openings on their career board. And yeah, originally I'm from Russia, though in EU for almost 8 years by now...
Agree. Few years ago I asked my employer to change Mac for something else and I got the 7th gen (Intel 8th gen processor) X1 Carbon, I fall in love and now I bought the latest 10th gen model (Intel 12th gen) and I very much like it. Super light and silent, great keyboard and also I like the touchpad on the latest model, it become even better. Build quality is the best, hinges are balanced very well that when you shake the laptop screen doesn’t move a bit but you can still open it with one hand. From the cons - it’s hot comparing to the 7th gen and also the battery life is slightly lower.
