I recently started looking for jobs again and I often like to see if the websites I visit have any open positions but I get annoying having to find the link to the career pages. So I made an extremely simple browser extension to make the process faster. That's all.
- duxup 8y agoCareer pages are the worst. I was applying for a job at one site... you had to watch several minutes of videos, and answer a questions about the videos before you could submit your application. It was like they put their high level "welcome to the company" videos in front of people applying. Brutal.
- newsbinator 8y agoIt's an HR hack for attracting desperate candidates.
- duiker101 8y agoWow that's the polar opposite of the experience I had. The last 2 jobs I had I applied via those pages and I always felt like it was a more direct way to get in touch with the team rather than going through a recruiter.
