Well, as an unemployed dev currently making 0k, yes, I would take it. Thanks for the suggestion!
As would I in your shoes! The rub is as a potential employer, I would be questioning if you will still be here in 6 months or will you spend your time as an employee looking for something "more appropriate" I want to be clear that this is not any kind of know on you. You might be the perfect long term person for the job. You just need some kind of hook to convince potential employers that you are not a drive by.
- show that this company is not just a temporary gap filler until you find a new CA job
- provide evidence that you would stick around for morE than a few months. Outside of SV, I don’t think it is common for tenures to be as short as they are in SV.
