I feel like job boards should phase out companies that have a record of posting jobs they're not actually hiring for because "HR says we have to before we can hire from within."
Why is that even a policy to begin with‽ Hiring from within first instead of making a song and dance about "trying to" hire from without just feels like companies being allergic to internal promotion out of abject terror that an official new title will have to come with a raise or some other benefits that are still cheaper than getting some whole new worker.
Actually, I think you got that wrong. Generally they hire from within first.
They post jobs they don't intend to offer so they can justify hiring an H-1b to the frleds... "See? We posted the job for months and nobody was able to fill it"
It sounds like whichever agency is responsible for enforcing the law against fraudulent jobs listing is really slacking. Or more likely it’s never been considered a priority. It should be though, fraudulent listings waste the time of people searching for employment and probably need a job sooner rather than later.
HR is a scourge upon this cursed earth.
Nice punctuation.
