Horrid. It's a kickback sheme too probably, directors collude to clamp hiring to "the cream of the crop" which is basically no one, while the other 2 outfits benefit from monopsony and an influx of cheaper talent they can make investments until their own situation gets dire, and let hiring breathe again. A sort of autoeconomic career cycle dysplasia. Most of these jobs are only open if you went to college, decided 2 years in that you wanted to work at one of these joints, worked in a lab for 4 years to get your masters, had excellent grades, and your PI was a friend of a friend. HR just assumes like 99% of the population is deranged.
