would you take it?

>>106364471 (OP)
Because it requires a cover letter, no. But this is the 90s so maybe.

>>106364471 (OP)
most people would have never gotten this opportunity.

lol what do i look like a faggot

No, This is one of those oppourtunities where he is just looking for somebody who already has a job doing this exact thing at another company to just steal their trade secrets and do the same thing for him in 30% of the time and then fire you after.

What kind of douchebag has a quote like that in his professional signature

What happens if I quit right after he pays for my relocation?

Developing software must've been very ass in the 90s since hardware perfomance was below the brain power of a cockroach and internet, if even avalaible, was fucking slow and unstable

I was just a kid at that time, but holy shit even in the late 90s developing software was fucking ass

I'm not qualified I'm not a 3x dev
nor competent in communication. If I was I would have a wife or equivalent.

>>106364471 (OP)
you posted a help wanted ad, not a job offer

>>106364471 (OP)
This job posting is less demanding than an entry level internship from today.

>>106364566
he's right tho
it doesn't imply anything good about the future
it's easier to go shoot someone than to predict who will be shot

I could do it with training.

Maybe commie zoomoids were right about "muh rich". Too bad you have to keep them on a tight leash

>>106364916
300k is barely enough to start a business

take it and then assassinate bezos when you see him and prevent him from creating amazon in the first place. Would save hundreds of thousands of small businesses.

>>106365068
is it really just him? not a fundamental outcome of capital flowing into dot com businesses in that era?

>>106364930
it was way more than $300k

>>106365451
>reading comprehension
its just asking for a bachelors

>>106365542
>In 1994, Bezos started with nothing but a plan to capitalize on the burgeoning potential of the Internet. He invested $10,000 from his personal savings to incorporate a company called Cadabra, Inc. Eventually, he changed the name to Amazon after one of his attorneys misheard the name as Cadaver. Then came his most risky investment. His parents invested $250,000, a significant portion of their savings
it was even less than 300k

>>106365566
If you're that much of a fucking mong to believe this, you're starting off at $540,000+ in todays money

>>106364471 (OP)
Ah, so recruiters have always had astronomical requirements. Lovely.

>>106364471 (OP)
>you should be able to do so in about one-third the time that most competent people think possible
Yeah, no, fuck off

>>106365566
Everytime I tell people that "big" companies were funded by elite investors, I always point to shit like Facebook, Amazon, and Microsoft. Who lied that they started out on humble beginnings but they always got "loans from family" well up to 500K or more. Oh yeah, such a small business!

>>106366177
No just rich assholes trying to pinch every penny.

>>106364471 (OP)
funny how a job requirements for this shit changed so much in 20 years

>in about one-third the time that most competent people think possible
If there's any other offer I'd take it instead.

imagine 1994 grunge bars at seattle how cool would it be to ride bike around town dropping cds even not knowing unix at all

Well that sounds unreasonable.

>>106364471 (OP)
I'd do it for 5% equity

>>106364471 (OP)
yeah, that's the kind of offer I'm qualified for.

>>106364471 (OP)
Just another scam startup that wants to exploit you. Pass.

Were your parents unable to save $500k in their retirement accounts over their whole life?
That's a somewhat middle-class figure, that bar is not "rich" at all

>>106368784
He was loaned that amount from their savings, along with investments from "trust funds." They had way more than that. They were not middle class.

>>106368806
>>106368784
If you don't have 500k on hand right now you are a poorfag.

>>106368830
>mfw I wasnt born into the upper fiat aristocrat hierarchy with access to zero interest loans

Unironic skill issue.

>>106367907
This is the proof he wanted to hire salesmen like him to better interface with. Those are probably the ones that rose among the ranks while the others doing the actual hard work and got fired.

>>106368806
This is a dumb debate but you don't know what upper-class is. Upper-class at a MINIMUM means you could live entirely on income your investments. My dad has a net worth in the seven figures and still needs to work for a living, I'd for sure describe him as upper-middle class, same as Bezos' parents from the sound of it.

>>106368092
Apple, Dell, Id software just to name a few examples that started with a budget of $0. And even if Bill got a $500K loan if you've interacted a lot with rich people you would know they're quite used to people asking for money and saying no, which includes family. The message your extrapolating from successful companies is the wrong one, instead of thinking "if you're not born rich your screwed" you should be thinking "I should be getting investors early on".

>>106368936
500K and upwards is not a budget of $0.

It does suck that the wealthy are the ones with the freedom to pursue science and invest in their ideas, but this has always been the standard in history.

It's very Lindy for a rich heir with all the time in the world to read every philosophy book, every science novel and do science experiments in his backyard. That's Isaac Newton.
It's very rare for a regular working Joe to gamble his limited equity on a passing idea he had.

>>106368830
Yes, and?

>>106369133
>It does suck that the wealthy are the ones with the freedom to pursue science and invest in their ideas, but this has always been the standard in history.
No, during the boom period of America when we didnt have a central bank, even Joe could innovate to build a business. Small businesses were the backbone and the standard of all societies. But when you add a jewish central planning into things, suddenly all small businesses get destroyed and only nepotistic babies get their ideas funded. That's why everything is stagnant atm, with zombie companies, and zero innovation. It's also why the only innovatoons are survelliance and ways to keep people more drugged and locked down. It's the elite's innovation of slavery.

He mentioned well capitalized startup so I'm assuming the pay is decent. The pay is probably on par with a senior dev given his experience requirements too.

I know times are tough right now but I say this from Canada, starting a business in the states is far, far better for the average joe than it is for an average Joe in a European/Canadian economy.
Unless you're a blue blood or on a first name basis with the local government starting a business is a crapshoot.
It's fucking ridiculous how much they tax you for bullshit that doesn't exist. Even successful businesses are barely skirting by.

Which is why euros and Canadians will walk down 5 different streets and see the same fucking businesses repeated because there is no competition for small local businesses to take a risk on a venture. We just get more tim.hoetons, Walmart's and McDonald's on every street.

Meanwhile I can drive around for hours in California and I never see the same business repeated.

The health of competitive businesses can be measured by how frequently you can find multiple McDonald's. If you have a lot of McDonald's in a small area then that's an unhealthy economy where local businesses can't thrive. If you see a single McDonald's in a 50 mile radius then that's a very healthy economy that I have only seen in America.

>>106369342
I like the McDonald metrics way of seeing if an area is shitty or not.

>>106364471 (OP)
how much do i get paid though

>>106369615
It was seattle in 94, so probably a bit above min wage around that area. I never lived there though

>>106368844
Bro my family has been working their whole lives and have less than half a million net worth, almost entirely in their house.
Always ask your family for low interest loans when you buy a house or car or something because you are always retarded not to pay the interest to family instead of a bank, and you will probably get a better interest rate and still beat whatever 2-3% conservative growth rate target that have on their retirement, it's win-win for everyone except the bank

$500k is literally all a boomer needed to retire. There's a difference between your parents being able to save $500k over their lifetime and being rich enough to bet $500k on a startup. They were either rich as fuck if they could invest that much in his company or they really believed in their son. Most boomers would not invest their entire life savings in their kids, since boomers hate their kids. Of course Bezos' parents are not boomers so they probably loved their son and were happy to help.

>>106369920
Jeffy B, being 61 himself, probably had literal boomer parents.
