I would say more than 12% of job postings are fake or suspect in one way or another. Either just trawling, or they're some college kid posting their idea from previous drunken night, or someone overemployed outsourcing their jobs, etc.<p>The entire market seems to have turned to a cess-pit recently. I am looking for work (in Rails specifically, but can do C, some js, even 6502, lol), have many years experience in code and IT in general, worked for industry behemoths in the past, and even willing to work for the paltry $10/hr or whatever many of the Indian companies post, at least to start, but because I have no history on the platforms, I get almost no responses to proposals. And you only get credits for a handful of proposals before you're expected to start paying - sorry, but no. maybe I'll buy an actual lottery ticket instead.
