When I read "REMOTE (Toronto preferred)", I think to myself: "If I get this gig, I'm going to be the remote guy.. the unpreferred remote guy".

Just sayin.

Point taken, and is what I wanted to avoid. If it puts people in a bad mood before they hit line 2 then shame on me. Thanks for the feedback.

Do you get applications from HN with that offered salary range? I've heard COL of Toronto is similar to SF; if so, this would be very low wages
motivindex · 8 years ago
Yes, we get a very manageable amount of applicants.

And we get that 70-80K doesn't get you Rosedale, but if you live in the Hammer it goes a lot further eh?
