Nov 24, 2010 at 19:00 | comment | added | Paul McMillan | @Konrad: (At least in the US) when I say that a company made me a job offer, I mean that they officially offered me a precise salary and position in the company. Usually this means that I've already interviewed, signed the NDA, passed the background and references check, etc. What I typically get via email are job inquiries - they want to know if I'm interested in going further with their company. They may be very serious about that, but they're not job offers until the choice about whether or not I work for the company is entirely up to me. | |

Nov 23, 2010 at 12:05 | comment | added | Paul McMillan | "Job offers" aren't the same thing as Job Offers (i.e. Sign on the line and come in on Monday). Lets be clear about the difference here... | |
Nov 22, 2010 at 20:55 | comment | added | Sean Patrick Floyd | @Konrad almost anybody can get high rep if they put enough effort in it. I'd guess you got those job offers because your answers are very good (although the rep probably helped). But I doubt that someone who has 50k rep would automatically get job offers if he'd only given many mediocre answers (those do get rep after all). | |
