Just declined a remote job offer that required:
5 days/week of evening work (25+ hours)
4 hours/day x 5 days of unpaid training before starting
A fixed salary of 200€ a month
Deep testing in 4 skills before even being hired
A 3-month renewable contract with no raise in sight ( they said no way at all)
I politely said the compensation doesn’t match my qualifications and experience. Yet the recruiter still texted back asking why I declined, as if 200€ for all that wasn’t self-explanatory.
And every time I talk about this, people around me say:
“But you don’t have income right now. Why would you turn it down?”
Because I could make the same 200€ in few days doing Uber, no unpaid “training,” no tests, no pretending the workload is “part-time.”
It’s not about the job title , it’s about the respect for my time.
Being underpaid is worse than being unemployed.
Please tell me I’m not the only one in this?
