RE: Seeking Remote HIM Manager (fwd)

[Noelle <http://dummy.us.eu.org/noelleg>]

I don't know why 3 people so far in this company didn't notice that I said 
I might be interested in coder job, not supervising jobs. they asked for my 
resume today so maybe they will know I'm not qualified. I guess I passed 
their coding test at least.
Probably  recruiter gets more money incentive for the manager job??
