We all know its all about the money.

I want to know that you care enough to have done a modicum of research on your new potential employer. And in turn, that you can give a short answer on why you might want to spend 40 some hours a week with us.

If you can't do that, (and it really just is all about the money) then that's just a precursor to a disaster or new future burn out.

As a person who just voluntarily switched to a job with less money and couldn’t be happier about it, I’d beg to differ.

I world argue it’s still cause of money, whether it’s more money or less money doesn’t matter, just the money (and benefits if America) to be able to live. It’s only when your answer is still the same given you don’t have financial responsibilities and health needs that one can truly say it’s not about the money.

I'll do research if you guys actually decide to interview me. Huge waste of my time for me to give a shit about your company if our relationship ends with you throwing my resume in the trash and sending me a polite email telling me to pound sand.

>and sending me a polite email telling me to pound sand.

Mostly not even bothering to inform you that you didn't make it to the interview round.
