What kind of ersatz hr outsourcing company is this? I attempted to apply for a job I was extremely qualified for when I was sent to ivy exec's website to fill out yet another job application that has its own format requirements for your resume, making you re-enter job by job experience.
I was glad to see they had a way to link my already robust LinkedIn version of my resume, so I clicked the button...and again...and again... finally I contacted the website to ask why I was having trouble logging in to finish my application to this job that drew me there in the first place. I was told it takes time, sometimes upwards of 48 hours, I wrote back, "in this job market, 48 hours is too long".
Flash forward to 48 hrs later, I'm looking at the same job listing on indeed.com's daily email alert, and I re-attempt. I was greeted with an alert page "regretfully informing" me that I was not qualified to become a member of this website.
Huh? I'm totally qualified for the job, what's this bs about some middleman website telling me I cant apply?
Welcome to the future where most work is outsourced, labor and talent marginalised, and the work that's left delegated by out of touch individuals in human resources departments or worse, some website run by a bunch of 20 year old monkeys with ipads with no real advertising or print industry experience.
