The guy is getting roasted in the comments too, especially about being unfair to NDs

Narcissism abounds in every sentence.

What does someone's personal life have to do with their work performance? Why does he want to get to know who they are "as a person" rather than know how they are qualified for the job? This has a bunch of red flags as far as I'm concerned

Hell just thinking about myself I'm an abrasive asshole but I can still do most work just don't put me in customer service and I won't tell someone to drown themselves in their own piss. Just let me do my thing and the jobll be done.

If you don't leave a voicemail, I didn't want to talk to you anyway.

Leave a message, asshole!

It seems to me that looking for a job in the pre-internet days was a fairer process that gave more unemployed an equal chance. Nowadays with these "corporate" job apps it just seems like your screaming into the wind.

There's no way in hell that's a paid internship.

Ok, here's a thing about "me" I don't enjoy your completely disrespectful attitude and your entitled view of MY time to be garbage. I'm glad I could help you explore getting to know me more. Enjoy the answering machine.

Do any of you honestly believe it’s unfair to call someone who applied for the job over email? They left their contact information didn’t they? If 6 people want a job and only 1 answers their dam phone…lol, lmao even

I hate answering the phone as much as anyone else but I always answer the random numbers when I’m actually expecting a call from work or a doctor.

LinkedIn is a fucking joke but anyone genuinely outraged by this is being absurd

My only gripe is not leaving a voicemail. Canadidates are not receptionists, so making assumptions of people based on not answering two random calls through the day is not really a good way to recruit talent.

I'm not that old but I'll answer every call when I can, I'll call back if you leave your number to my VM, I make it a point to follow up if you reach out,. However I might be on the train, driving, in the shower and can't answer. Or, I could be having real life fun or doing real life work where I don't have to constantly be monitoring my phone or looking at LinkedIn HR-AI slop.

I agree it's fair to expect a phone conversation, but two calls and no message is a dick move

[–] rapchee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

not even a job, an internship
