- walshemj 13y agoAny experienced HR person woudl be having nightmares god only knows what discriminatory hiring practices are going on here.
- ignoramous 13y agoIt is not that Bar Raisers get away with just the Veto. Usually the process involves discussion between every one involved in the interview loop, including the manager, BR, other engineers, and the HR. A final "hire" or "no hire" call is made based on "data-points" collected over the course of the interview / interactions had with the candidates by the people present in the interview loop. As evident, BRs clearly have a final say in the hiring process, but they don't always go about vetoing every candidate just because they can. They usually justify it with valid "data-points" and if one or two others have "data-points" to make a compelling argument against what the BR says, then they usually do so. And BR do listen to others who have contributed to the interview loop... they aren't in the mold of dictators exactly. Even BRs get evaluated for performance... since the HRs are also involved in the discussion, one can be sure that no HR would tolerate discrimination, let alone 4-8 other engg or managers on the interview loop. Again, just my take on things, I do not speak on the behalf of my employer.
- walshemj 13y agoPerception is everything This sounds like the sandwidge chain in the UK which had staff make input into hiring and it turns out that they favored nudge nudge their country men and women from eastern Europe and funnily no local kids from say tottenham seemed to get hired. Boris Johnson noticed that something was wrong Boris Johnson!!
