I’d love to take a questionnaire like this. It gives me then impression they are trying to get to know the people applying as people. I know bias sneaks in. I’m not sure this is necessarily a bad thing. Ultimately we are people, and will be working together as people. You can’t make everything unbiased and precise without treating people like replaceable robot cogs. Maybe some people like this or feel it is fair. I don’t.

- corrral 4y agoIt's a lot of work, to still be very early in the hiring funnel and not to know what the comp is likely to be. Plus, I personally hate writing about myself, and writing something a bit boastful about myself is probably my single least-favorite thing to write. It feels really uncomfortable and gross. It's the kind of thing I hate enough that it might prompt me to go do something else I hate, like re-painting a room, to put off doing it. Résumés and cover letters are bad enough without "please write 500 words about your accomplishments in high school". But that's just me. The large time commitment for only a sliver of a chance at a job granting unspecified compensation, is why it's bullshit for everyone.
