I've ditched everything except for Real Talk. I'm not throwing my resume into a form hole, I'm not responding to recruiters. I email someone I would be working with directly until they start the hiring process. This precludes me from working at any large company, in my experience they just beat me around the algorithm and HR bushes for 1 to 6 hours then send me a canned rejection from their no-reply address. It's a complete waste of my time.
- vanusa 6y agoSame here, pretty much. It's like their basic strategy has come to be: "It's all about the funnel! Got to get more people in our hiring funnel! But wait, we don't actualy know how to evaluate them effectively and efficiently (or even how to communicate with them decently). So... let's just get a bunch of people "engaged" and see who washes up at the end. That way, we can at least tell the higher-ups that thanks to our diligent hiring process, we can go online and brag about how we only hire the top 2 percent of incoming candidates."
