certainly not for 15k! Unless you treated is as a stepping stone but even then you'd find it hard to survive in london for that money.

Given by the number of positive comments on here I'd say £15k is about right - remember the employer only has to pay the minimum needed to get someone capable in the door. I expect £15k will do that.

if your interested you should be doing things like this.

What, using that grammar and punctuation?
I think its a safe bet they wouldnt take you anyway tbh..

crashuk · 11 Jul 2006 at 18:50

if you have those skills then your worth more than 15K

If you can sharpen your own pencils and tie your shoelaces by yourself, you're worth more than 15k.

No, not if there is someone else with those skills willing to work for £15k. And it's you're not your.

There probably are people with those skills willing to work for that salary point. Provided youre willing to set up a VPN to Poland/Slovakia/Russia/India and dont class "ability to speak English" as a prerequisite

On a related note, due to boredom on my part I decided to have a look at some of the posts closer to home: here are some choice cuts of job-advert-related hilarity:

Applying for it won't do any harm.

You never know till you apply.

When I'm looking for a job I just apply for anything I'm vaguely interested in, as the job description often doesn't match the actual role anyway.

hes more on about the money compared to job spec i think.
which looks like a terrible wage!
