[chiPHPug-discuss] Questionable Company

[Steven <coo...@ya...>]

Has anyone here had any dealings with a company called Trinuc?

They contacted me today regarding a position for PHP Developer. I'm eager for a job, but there's just too much that smells fishy about them.

First, the e-mail they sent me.

Okay... that wasn't the best email in the world, but I figured I'd respond anyway. I sent them my resume, and even attempted to fill out those odd fields near the bottom. I attached my resume in PDF form to be sure they would see it the same way I did, and this is how they responded:

---
can u send ur resume in MS WORD document coz the resume now is in PDF form we need in MSWORD PLZ
---

I shit you not, that's exactly what they said.

I'm really doubtful now. A page on their website, the clients page, has a bunch of logos and text contained within one single large image, a very n00bish practice. I sent in an MS word resume, however. By now, I'm just holding out in hopes that the person I've been talking to is just a complete idiot and it's a legit company.

Ah... they've just sent me a response.

NEED DETAILS DESCRIPTION FOR EACH PROJECT PLZ COZ ONLY 2 PAGES OF RESUME TAT TOO NT IN DETAIL

I'm self taught, so I don't have any professional IT projects. I suppose I could describe an image gallery I coded, but by now I'm just doing this out of boredom and desperation.
