Only willing to hire people with 5 to 10 years of XYZ.
Leetcode and other hazing-based hiring practices.
Shitty office space (when onsite is required).
Shitty communication during the hiring process itself - random delays, ghosting, ignoring my stated scheduling preferences, inability to communicate simple, important things like what kind of health benefits you're offering (in your exploding offer you coughed up after 6 weeks of radio silence, no less).
Nonsense perks like "unlimited vacation" or free food.
A lack of willingness/ability to communicate what's important about the role and the kind of person you really want to hire (smart, gets shit done, not an asshole). Instead of fetishing 5-10 year of XYZ or larding with buzzwords.
Recruiters. Everyone hates them.
- marto1 5y agoOh, nice one! Came here with the intent purpose of typing out a list of really bad practices, but you just about summed it up. The tldr for me is an acute lack of *qualified* suckers that will just bow their head whenever yet another 1% cost cutting measure is taken.
