[HN Gopher] No salary wastes everyone's time

       No salary wastes everyone's time
        
       It's the first of the month, so that means "Who's Hiring".  Roles
       which do not list a salary (or reasonable salary range) will have
       worse signal-to-noise applications the more senior the roles.
       Missed opportunity: company and candidate may never meet because
       candidate assumes low salary.  Wasted company and candidate time:
       candidate is enthusiastic and goes through some effort/process
       before discovering the salary is too low.  The days of hiding
       salary numbers need to end. Imagine shopping at some stores where
       the cost of items were not displayed until checkout. Shoppers would
       favor the stores which listed prices up front; they would only
       visit the hidden-price stores for unique or specialty items which
       were not available at stores which listed prices.  If a company
       cannot compete on salary, and they know it, they should explain why
       they are still worth considering. And if they have no value to
       offer to make up for the comparatively low salary, then they should
       make clear that they accept more junior developers (or are willing
       to train).  (reposted with title change based on previous comment
       recommendation)
