Quote from Steven.Davis:

We are having a hard time finding good programmers (especially architects and lead programmers) in Boston who ideally know about trading. I interviewed for 8 months before placing someone. Resumes welcome.


Sometimes you have to pay the spread, to lock in the talent.

one of the hint to spot a real good programmer:


1) anti social
2) can't dress
3) beloved of video games (xbox, playstation, wii)
4) cartoon freak.
5) enjoy eating fast foods (pizza)
6) become shy when nice looking women around. (WOMEN whooo hooo)
7) most enjoy rock music



P.S

a good programmer who is an anti social have time to develop a program vs a programmer who is social able have time or will make time with women rather than working

I know someone who couldn't find a job anywhere. Well not many employers like their staff to roll up at midday, unwashed etc.

He thought he had found his niche in life as a sperm donor. They haven't found the " lazy " gene yet !
