Episode 95: Paying For Help and Scared of Recruiters
About this episode
This week Jamison and Dave answer these questions:
- When should asking a developer pal for help go from something that is free because you’re pals to something you should compensate them for in some way?
- I’ve never worked with recruiters before. I’ve always found jobs from friends and other connections. Is working with recruiters worth it? What should I watch out for?
I finally found the creepy Jack and the Beanstalk video! It is still horrifying.
