> Doubly so because the executive is not the hiring manager
This is really the crux of it, for me. People hear stories about executives finding that diamond in the rough and slashing through the beauracracy to get them hired. That kind of thing almost never happens, especially from the perspective of the person looking for a job. I think this perspective might be hard to get until you've worked at a large organization, or better hired people at one.
Brutal honesty? You're probably just not that special, don't expect special treatment.
- watwut 6y agoIt does happen - with friends son so that you give favor to friends and hope he will reciprocate. From sons perspective, executive found diamond, little bit pushed him on starter point. From other employees perspective, it is nepotism. Friends son got a job that more experienced and qualified people could or should do.
