Yes. Honestly these days people cannot afford rent on $16 even living in the crappiest of situations.

I think it ultimately depends on where you live. The cost of living is going to vary from place to place so significantly. If it's fairly rural, $16 an hour is probably about average. But if it's a big city, I would expect something closer to $18 or $20 an hour.

Yes its too low. Does it cover benefits?

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
