We're looking for an assistant Greenkeeper

No actual salary stated - pet hate of mine!!! Especially if companies say it is a competitive salary, can't be that competitive if they won't say what it is

Phone and ask if you're interested., it depends on experience.
Would you like your potential wage posted in a national magazine?

Agree with Neilds, at least post the salary range.

I understand that people don't like to publicise their wages but you have also got to see it from the applicant who reworks his CV, swots up on the company as part of the interview prep, attends the interview (possible day off work, travel costs, etc) to find out the salary is not suitable for him.
But that detracts from your post so apologies for taking this off piste

And a 6-7 hr, 370+ commute for an unqualified person is a bit much for me

It only takes a phone call, maybe they pay for travel time

LinkedIn contains many thousands of lines about whether you should post a salary in a job ad or not. I guess it is up to advertisers, but statistics show, leaving it off reduces the number of applicants. (if you are offering market rate)

Would you like your potential wage posted in a national magazine?

I think applicants are more interested in ln knowing what they are applying for, than the concerns above.

But, it is their call....

This is a HUGE problem in golf right now - certainly in Scotland. Almost every golf club has a vacancy somewhere in their GK team.

Crap money, hard graft and 500 bosses who know better.

Pet hate of mine, too. The only "competing" they are doing are with other potential employers, to see who can get away with paying the least.

"Competitive" means as close to the minimum as they can get. If they were proud of what they were offering, they'd put it on the damn advert.
