Why protect the identity of the ones saying this? Could save some people wasted time applying, or even worse, someone might even get hired by them.
Be greatfull you didnt get that position because if they say asking about responsibilities (aka the role) is a no-no, then they’re scamming.
*grateful (as in ‘dead’)
Dodged a bullet.
A tank shell.
a nuclear bomb
A pickled conservative
That’s code for “we know that nobody would work here if they knew the answers, so we don’t want to tell anyone them”
Yeah. If that’s their response, then Gavin dodged a bullet.
Task failed successfully. Any company willing to get defensive in writing clearly has some horrific practices.
That is true, but a shitty job is still better than homelessness and starvation, Both dodged a bullet and also really sucks
I personally think a horrible employer is worse than homelessness. I actually spent less time hungry what time I didn’t have a place and always had the shelter at night before getting back on my feet.
Shitty job; I woke up nauseous every morning. Always had this sort of dread. A general depression from the abuse and general humiliation of the workplace. We really know how to grind the average white collar to ash and dump them in the garbage when they get older.
I agree with you 100%, with a small caveat, that it is an individual choice and preference to choose between a shitty job and homelessness. The streets can be hard, and getting back into a house is almost impossibly hard for so many people.
It is a shitty system by design. no good outcomes and arguing about which shitty outcome is less shitty is a waste of time. I really hope you are housed and have a good job.
given. if you didn’t know what they wanted by then. don’t ask. fake it till you make it. and they don’t want to start over
Yeah more red flags than a Soviet parade imho
Or a MAGA gathering
Most companies nowadays decide to go with the bosses nephew.
Be grateful at least you got a reply, instead of getting ghosted
That’s literally what at least 30 years of job interview advice has been encouraging people to ask during an interview
You dodged a bullet there.
Like a 950 caliber bullet. Depending on the work, a company like that is going to be just as effective as making someone go splat.
Is that a thing? Anywho… you are correct.
They’re freaking gigantic too. They don’t make them anymore though.
yeah it only becomes a problem when every company realizes they can do this at the same time and so being honest in an interview isn’t an edge anymore, since no one is doing it
NOOOO the interview is meant for us to find a guy to underpay, not for you to find a stable good paying job!!!
While I believe companies do this, I don’t believe this image is real. There is literally no reason to blur out the company. You didn’t get the job. What do you gotta lose by showing the name of the company.
Just takes all credibility out of this image
EDIT: this seems to be incorrect
HR emails mostly include a legal disclaimer, that the email is solely intended for the addressee. If you go ahead and share the whole email including names of the company/the sender, there may be legal consequences
That’s completely non-binding for the receiving party. It is intended to stop people intercepting emails intended for other people. If the recipient chooses to disclose information that was intended for them, there is nothing the company can do. You can’t unilaterally impose a duty of confidentiality on someone unless they have explicitly agreed to it in advance. If they want to prevent someone from sharing info they would need to get the person to sign an NDA.
Oh, I didn’t know that. So it is legally binding if you got the mail by accident? Thanks for sharing!
I doubt the recipient was required to sign a non-disclosure agreement before reading the letter. If the recipient has no contract with the company, he has no obligation to follow its internal policies. It becomes a Freedom of Speech issue once the recipient receives the message.
There literally will not
Screw it, just name and shame the company.
They don’t like talking about it because every interested candidate becomes uninterested immediately after hearing the pay sucks, the hours suck, and the culture is awful.
You see, we only hire the biggest suckers round here.
