> Indeed, once a technically challenged HR included a whole spreadsheet of applicants in her reply, which basically confirmed her company rejects applicants for arbitrarily stupid reasons
Is this an imaginary situation, or did it actually happen? If the latter, link?

- a_imho 9y agoIndeed it happened. Won't share, it is full of personal information (it is not even in English), some of the reasons they list include talks weird, too confident, looked at the clock too many times, too many previous jobs etc. Rejecting for too high expected salary was a non factor basically (also they strictly did not try to negotiate that), lacking technical skills were rarely mentioned too.
- fwdpropaganda 9y agoI know this isn't your point, but thought I'd share: for me being too confident is always an enormous red flag. Almost never makes sense rationally, unless you're talking about your tiny corner of super-specialization. And even then I'd like to see if you talk like that to the world's top expert in that area.
