My boss just dropped the offer salary for a new candidate by 25% because they weren't from a top tier school...I really hope they still accept b/c I _really_ need the help! I know that's a bit different than what the article is talking about but still similar reasoning. They were the strongest performer on every metric we have and for no other reason than the name of the school they did their graduate work at, they are getting a significantly lower offer. Really makes you question the value of the metrics in the first place, doesn't it?!
- windows_tips 8y agoDo you think may candidates would accept such a blatant bait and switch? >dropped the offer salary for a new candidate
- simonhamp 8y agoThat’s disgusting. It also feels a little bit sabotage-y, especially as you need the help. I’d be questioning why I still want to work for a company/people who would make those kinds of decisions...
