I was told during an interview last week that I would be expected to wear different hats. Is that code for the company being constantly understaffed? Because the $18.50 an hour doesn't feel like enough to be wearing multiple hats.

It really depends. Are you someone that looks for opportunity or free training to advance faster (gain exp at a higher rate) or are you overwhelmed or want to get paid the most for the least effort?

How much did you pay for your college degree to date? They trained you basics and provided some nebulous background on some of what you may see in the real world? But this company is willing to give you tasks in multiple departments so you can grow your basic knowledge with real world experience? Many students pay their school tuition for a term of internship. This job seems very similar to that type of opportunity.

Why don't you think in another way round, you can rotate your responsibilities until you can find your interest, then carry that and move on for next job ?

"Wearing multiple hats" is coporatese for being potentially overworked for the least amount of pay, and being a jack of all trades, but master of none.

Should I be concerned with that?

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.

Unfortunately, I got an email today from the system, they decided not to move forward :( Should I reach out to her abt this?
