Well at least they are not laying off thousands and instead give them other jobs.

They don't "give" them those jobs. They make them execute a stressful performative action (i.e. the whole groveling process of applying for a job, all over again) which they might very well fail.

  >the whole groveling process of applying for a job You might have some unresolved issues. Applying for a job definitely shouldn't be a "groveling process"

    When is the last time you had to undergo a process like that? Never?

      Are you implying that I am jobless or that I got a job without interviewing? I however did not grovel and beg or feel humiliated about getting a job, so I guess never is the correct answer. This feels very much like this eternal "white-board coding is bad" take which always boils down to the arguer having twisted view of what the point of interviews even are and having mental/socializing issues.

        No, but I'll make the claim that you haven't been in the trenches of the modern job search at the commoner level. Perhaps you had a good network, held a job for long enough, or have had some other circumstance. Groveling is an understatement for how bad of an experience the job search can be.

        I have been in same job for 3 years, before this I was in last place for 5. For last job I was approached and for current I applied. I get around 3 interview offers a month, most of which I instantly turn down since they either won’t tell me how much they would be paying or would be paying less than what I am paid now. I am expecting a raise of some sort this year, if I don’t get one organically I will just stat taking some of those interview offers.

    Having to prove your worth to a corporation so you can put food on your table and a roof over your head while pretending to have other motives is absolutely a groveling, humiliating process for retail workers. It is also a humiliating and stressful process for professional workers as well, many of which are not social and haven’t established a proper social network to make it more painless. Having to do a dog and pony to prove yourself is excruciating.

      Seriously. Get some help. You ain't all right.
