Epiq Systems in Kansas City, KS

We assist law firms with their complex IT needs, like ediscovery, printing class action mailings, tracking bankruptcy filings. Excellence is expected and paid above average for. Corporate culture is more conservative than many places but the organization still adapts to technology reasonably rapidly.

We're looking for 5 positions. 3 coders but I unfortunately don't know much about it. C#. We have scrums but aren't that agile.

1 Windows Admin - This is a mainly OS position. There's an apps team but mainly we need server OS troubleshooting, development of monitoring, etc.

and the position I'm rooting for, Linux Admin, pardon the pun. You'll be the third member on the team.

- RHEL6, OEL6, Oracle RAC 11g, Puppet, Git

More than anything we're looking for the right person. There are a lot of ways to skin the cat and we'd prefer you not have a militantly religious view on your cat skinning method. Can you be open to learning how we skin the cat then help us understand how your method is better? If we're stuck skinning the cat in a stupid way for a while will that drive you nuts?

Email me at ddoughty youKnowTheSymbol epiqsystems.com for the linux or windows positions. The developers positions can be found at https://epiqsystems.tms.hrdepartment.com/cgi-bin/a/alljobs.c...

Not condoning what they did, but saying nothing seems to be par for the course, based on limited personal experience, and a lot of chatter from colleagues the past few years. Sad, but true.

Just because behavior is common doesn't mean it's acceptable or should be tolerated. Companies expect candidates to be professional and can't send a simple email? What else would they be cutting corners on?

How do you "not tolerate" it? Send them a nasty email? Create a 'wall of shame'?

One thing I've heard from larger companies is they often do not say anything because almost anything can be construed in to a lawsuit. I think this is a bit of a copout, and I think in most cases, it's just easier to do nothing, but the lawsuit thing probably isn't a total non-issue for some companies either.

"Thank you for your time and interest. We were faced with a tough choice with a lot of candidates, and we ultimately went with another candidate for this position" seems as inoffensive and bland as could be - why these aren't sent out it, I don't know.
