![[LIVE] : ONE ลุมพินี 67 | คู่เอก "นักรบ vs ทาเกียร์"](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/eahGc1XmrEU/mqdefault.jpg)
I used to be in retail management. When recruiting I always made sure that I contacted every unsuccessful applicant. Yes it was time consuming but it was just common courtesy, plus each of those applicants could be customers and I wanted them to know that although unsuccessful this time, the company appreciated them applying.
You are an MVP in a sea of people who don't care. We appreciate you.
Thank you for not ghosting. Even if you gave some cookie cutter answer at least there's closure.
I have been emailed and called by two people I interviewed with out of the 200 people in my lifetime I interviewed with. It probably took them 3 minutes but it really stood out as classy .
We need more good people like you in the recruitment business.
@@JoshuaFluke1 "You are an MVP in a sea of people who don't care. We appreciate you."
And how do you change people's mindsets, Josh? By making videos to tell them that it's ok to not have a courtesy to tell someone that you won't be attending a meeting that they know they have in their schedule?
If I got 5 bucks for every time a place I applied to ghosted me, I wouldn't need a job.
Say it louder for the people in the back
@@tobiasreaper3650 IF I GOT 5 BUCKS FOR....
What I hate is when they act like you got the job and you end up not getting it, just tell me I didn't get it, be honest.
Lol! Right!?
me too
I agree! How about they pay people for applying? Lol. The whole process is pretty time consuming, inconvenient, and often unrewarding for an applicant.
Just got an email from a company I didn’t even apply to requesting I take an aptitude test which takes an hour or more. Really really don’t want to waist my time jumping through hoops for nothing.
Exactly we have to update our resume, customise a cover letter, travel, pay for petrol and parking and they want us to pay, fuck off i would not want to work there
@@noble7461 I don't know who tf started using aptitude tests as a screening method 😤
recruiters get paid to talk to us. We don't get paid to apply to jobs. And it's a business transaction for the benefit of the company AND the employee. The company gets an employee, the employee gets a job.
Better example: when an agency tells me to drive 1-2 hours to their agency. "for an interview". But it's not an interview with the company, it's with the agency. Any questions that they have, they can ask over the e-mail or phone. Any paperwork they need, they can send via e-mail. Making me waste several hours of my time for some 20 year old kid getting 10 minutes of experience interviewing a person. Who should be paying who here?
What world do you live in where applying for a job is supposed to be "rewarding for an applicant"? What an absolute joke of mentality
Plot twist: They never officially reject your application, they just keep the deposit.
Plot twist twist: Me and my ski mask bros come in to rob the place at 2:48 AM from the back window
No company is good enough to make someone pay. I'd rather walk dogs for a living than endure more of this insane feudalist bullshit from corporations
Yes - exactly! It's a new business model for sleazebag CEOs!
After about 20 years working, I'll tell young people you should not have any loyalty to any organization, they will turn on you in a second when its convenient and fire/replace you. Also to ensure no slavery, young people dont get married and dont get a girl pregnant, make sure she takes the birth control pill daily in front of you and both wear protection. You will just condemn your new child to increasing poverty and freedomless slavery and these control/money/job trends worsen. Promote this idea in videos and social media to help prevent more young people into this new slavery.
I pretty sure some employers would just do that to earn money.
Love how companies feel betrayed when a candidate ghosts them....but when a company ghosts an applicant, which happens all the time, its a non issue.
ALL THE TIME
Same thing how they expect 2 week notice when you quit, but fire you with zero notice
Wait this CEO is mad that a guy did what every job does to it's un-chosen applicants??? 🤣🤣🤣
The irony is palpable ! 🤣
At least Dairy Queen gave me a free ice cream after the interview and I wasn’t even hired after but it was still something!
That's so sweet, literally
lol
Lol same happened to me too.
Sometimes managers at corporate jobs bend rules or directly break rules because they’re humans with empathy. I worked at a predatory loan office after college and talked many customers out of all kinds of loans that they didn’t need or couldn’t get out of if they would’ve applied. Literally would give them financial advice and try to help them find an alternative solution before borrowing money from us.
But our manager at Wendy’s in high school would take wraps and cheese and sauces and make us cheese quesadillas. He knew he could get in deep shit but didn’t care because it was shit that we were gonna throw away and it was a tiny thing that meant a lot to us.
@@Greenthumb6a I used to do the same thing, talk people out of getting loans when I worked for a place that did payday loans. I'd spend more time talking them out of it and looking for other solutions than it would take for me to write the loan. Around half of the people were coming in wanting a loan to pay medical bills, usually from one of those freestanding ER places that started popping up everywhere around 12, maybe 15 years, where they charge $60 for an aspirin. Collections would be telling them they were going to sue them and garnish their wages or even send the police to their house to arrest them and put them in jail if they didn't pay. Of course that's all BS, they can't throw you in jail anywhere in the US, and in my state they can't garnish wages for anything except taxes and child support. They're almost never going to sue for anything less than $5k, likely $10k. Medical bills don't count against your credit the same way as other debt, at least in my state, it can't be counted against you when applying for a home loan and a lot of places never bother reporting it anyway. And they have to accept a payment plan if you offer, whether it's $20 a month or whatever. I handed out flyers I made up with the contact info on how to file complaints with the state attorney general, OCCC, CFPB & FTC for the ones threatening jail time. Anyway, the ones that did get it, I made sure they knew the terms we weren't supposed to talk about, like it can be canceled if paid back within 3 days, or payment plans available with a fraction of the interest rate. I hate the way corporations run our country and our lives, trapping people in that crap. There was one senior manager that wanted to fire me over it. I flat out refused to stop what I was doing, telling her it's in the best interest of our customers and it'd be a disservice to withhold everything I counseled them on. But I was a model employee, my store still had the best numbers in the region with 15 others, and HR and some of her superiors actually backed me up, and said that wasn't a valid cause for termination. Surprising, because it probably was, this being an at will state.
“It takes time and money to find new employees”.
Yeah … that’s the job. Spend time and money finding good people.
It's like the guy has been oblivious to the costs of running a business all this time.
It's called investment. If good candidate is found, return of investment will happen within 1st day of his or her employment
at least recruiters get paid for searching for people. We don't get paid for looking for a job.
Spend even more to retain them. No? then goto 1
You know, instead of immediately firing the experienced staff so you can get newbies you don't have to pay as much.
If it's ok for a company to e-mail someone 1year+ after an interview to tell them they found someone else then it's totally ok to send a e-mail refusing an offer 1year+ later.
I had an email rejection notice that the position was cancelled about 4 years after I applied. The idiots never found anyone lmao. The department likely got canned.
One I applied for a position, only to hear back well over a year later that the position had re-opened and I was invited to interview.
Like... no thanks. Sounds to me like the other person quit and you just need to fill the slot asap.
@@seinfan9 that's great
Man the number of times I have had this happen is crazy.
I'm an aerospace manufacturing engineer and while I was in college I applied to be a tailor at David's Bridal after I bought some things from them to alter my own wedding dress and THEY asked me to apply. I didn't hear anything after that and it's been 6 years since I applied. They called me up just last month to offer me the job! LOL!
Now imagine this in reverse - candidates asking for a 5 pound refund for every time they applied and NEVER got an answer. That's a time and resources investment as well, isn't it? Funny how employees are expected to just take it but employers think it's justified to charge already broke people 5 pound for the OPPORTUNITY (not even the guarantee) to get a job. Can you even post this, unironically? Because it's terrifying if any business owner thinks this is appropriate in any circumstances.
Corporate entitlement at its finest.
It´s almost sociopath.
Some of the application processes I have done takes hours to apply for 1 job, they take all your personal information all your data and you never hear back...... all wasted time
@@aussiegruber86 For a job interview we usually spend with new clothes, transportation. The HR uses the same clothes he/she uses in work, don´t need transportation, don´t need to rent a place neither most of times. I wonder what make these people think that they spend more.
Shit Id apply at 100 places a day lol
My company literally has a notice on top of our careers page, saying if any recruiter approaches them and ask for money to apply, it's a scam. We don't charge applicants for applying.
No normal company does.
So.... You're saying i shouldn't give every random guy who knows how to copy/paste corporate job speak onto Indeed my SSN, license number, personal history, bank routing number, and a job application fee....? Then how do I get a job? ;)
don't some states have laws about this, especially union heavy states like new jersey? if anything this is a liability issue that could see future civil lawsuits.
my first thought, i'd think it was a scam company too.
They ghost applicants all the time with no manners or courtesy. Same as when they fire people they are let go unceremoniously but when you leave you have to give 2 weeks notice as courtesy.
Total double standards. They can ghost applicants, but applicants can’t ghost them.
Haha this reminds me of this time a company wanted me to complete a 'coding challenge relevant to their platform' so they briefed me a feature ticket I needed to create a pull request for to show my competence, now this should never be a problem if it wasn't for the ticket actually being assigned 4 hours of work by their senior dev. The look on their faces when I told them that, sure I would do their challenge, for the 125 an hour I would normally charge for freelance work.
I can't believe people think it's okay to ask someone to work for free just for a chance to be hired? like who do you think you are? Jordan Belfort?
The only companies that should be able to get away with this are ones who would never make you do this. You would complete a 4 hour sprint for google, microsoft or amazon for this chance just to tell others you did it. But those companies would never let an outsider touch their non-open source code.
@@sohaibarif2835 I think you're right in both statements, I would be more willing to provide work to a company in which the result of hiring is tremendous but the same companies that hold this value would never ask anyone to because they simply don't require that input to get a result for their product in the first place.
They're just making free work from job "applicants" part of their business model. Kind of like a modern day, white collar slavery.
Lol, that tells you a lot about a company.
They don’t have any concerns about people stealing their code or poking about looking for security holes... and if they actually use code written by applicants, then they are just plain nuts.
They’re clearly not a serious company.
Lol, it's like translation firms sometimes. They would give you an entire document to translate, proofread, etc as your "test". Later on, people would see their work published as an official translation for decrees or something else. No money for the labour, of course, as it was "just the test" after which they would never called back
Well Josh, the listing has been removed so I sent their hiring team a nasty email instead. Keep up the reality checks, my dude. You're killing it.
Lmaoooo nah bro, paste wht you sent here , I need the laugh today.
@@Goval400 I didn't really say anything Josh didn't cover here. Just that it's an abhorrent idea which would never fly were it the other way around, that I know they'd never reach out to a prospective candidate to offer the same courtesy upon passing them up and that this suggestion speaks a lot about what this company's business model is probably like.
Pay to apply? Sounds like college admissions
so true
Each time a temp agency promises the job will go permanent, I ask to read the "contract" (since they claim it's a contract, but it's a temp job) and say I need it in writing, they refuse. F recruiters.
A temp agency is a union for scabs. Except they don't get good pay or benefits
"It takes time and money to find new employees"
Yep, welcome to the business world.
Most executives are narcissists: usually grandiose and often malignant. This CEO is doing us a favor by showing us upfront that the company is a toxic work environment.
Any updates on their luck? I'm sure people are breaking their application server to pay to apply 🙄
But they have an enormous beating heart
I got ghosted by the company I was already working for. It wasn’t even a different department, I even asked the director for feed back via email and he didn’t respond.
Funny - recruiters ghost people all the time.
"We need new revenue streams!" "Why don't we try charging job applicants?" "That's brilliant!"
*Department of Labor and comptroller office has entered the chat*
It appears companies and recruiters don't like being ghosted, so why did they start the trend?
the advent of distant two way communication started the trend, probably when the telephone was invented
ahahahhaha you hit them right on the nail
@@cuddlycooper8169 Probably when letters were first used. I don't think ghosting is a modern thing.
Worse is my old company who would make an offer and then string people along for months, and THEN tell them the position had evaporated. So sorry, hope you didn't give up on the job search in the mean time
They string along in case the chosen applicant leaves.
This smacks of insecurity!
Reminds me of a “wackiest lawsuits” list I saw the other day - one man in Austin, TX _sued a woman he went on a date with, because she’d been on her phone the whole time._ They ended up settling, with her paying him back the $17.50 for a movie ticket and 1/2 of the popcorn, in exchange for him never contacting her again 😂
Tl;dr This manager is the business version of someone who’d sue their date for being bored by them 🤣🤣😭
Man why is America so easy on the "I'm gonna sue you" trigger? How butthurt can some people get...
@@stefan1360 laughs in European
@stefan1360 Gotta sue alot to stop these greedy companies/landlords from screwing us. Pretty much every landlord(that is an LLC individuals are usually better about it) will try to find some way to screw you out of your deposit if anything people don't sue enough in some cases or landlords wouldn't pull that bs
@@stefan1360 the weirder thing is he probably spent a few hundred in court just to file the case...
That CEO is going at this 100% the wrong way.
If a job seeker doesn’t see value in interviewing for the position, you need to make the position worth their time.
Aka quit being cheap AF and raise the wage.
Can I pay the deposit in exposure?
If only there was a way to reverse this. If I got $5 every time I was ghosted by an Indian guy who emailed me about an "urgent need" or "job opportunity", I wouldn't even need a job.
It's funny, I am seeing more and more disclaimers on job postings warning about scams - saying they do not charge an application fee or any other type of fee. If your actions make everyone think you are a scammer, you are not conducting business properly.
Had an on-site interview invite for a Process Engineer position at a semiconductor fab. The job description mentioned nothing about having to give sales pitches or consulting type presentations. The company asked me to put together a 30 minute power-point presentation for the first part of the interview, which would then be followed by two-one hour panel interviews and lunch on-site with a hiring manager at their cafeteria. I asked if candidates are offered any compensation for putting together these presentation, and was told "It is a part of our interview process and we don’t compensate for interviews". Obviously I declined the interview, due to their lack of respecting a candidates time. I'm fine with hours of behavior based interview questions, but asking me take time out of my day and put effort into a product (basic definition of work) with no compensation, is garbage.
It is also an act of stealing intellectual property. Any beneficial tricks will be adopted and stolen without your consent.
!!!!!! Yes good on you for recognizing the disrespect
I have shotgunned so many applications over the years that I have been in the position of "who are you again?" when setting up the first interview. If you aren't spraying and praying, your chances of getting a call back are slim.
95% of the ads I reply to have the words "only those selected will be contacted" somewhere in them. The days of the PFO letters from every application are long gone. to quote a great thinker of our time "Ain't no one got time for that!"
From what I’m seeing most applicants aren’t selected. Recruiting managers select a majority of people.
This is illegal in Canada. Thank gawd, and let's hope it stays that way
Can I charge Josh a fee for me spending my time to watch the videos. And if I'm satisfied by Josh, I'll return it?
Welp

I applied for a job through a recruiting company and was told I didn't get it. A few months later I wound up talking to one of the people who interviewed me. He told me they were told I had decided not to accept the job. Turns out one of the other applicants had a higher education and because of this, the recruiting company were able to negotiate a higher salary and thus commission, so they screwed me over to get that...wow,I wrote this before Josh mentioned it in the video...
This is enlightening Joshua, it's easy for people like us to give all the power to these companies because we fear being judged.
Time to start calling them out on linkedin in front of everyone. Time to get right in their passive aggressive faces.
Just when you think you've seen it all, Josh comes in clutch with more insanity. The level of disconnect between Executives and the rest of the world is unreal.
I got hired for subway when I was 16 and worked a shift. The manager said it was a "trial" shift. After the shift he told me, "you're not a good fit. But here's a check and a free soda." I was actually kind of sad because I thought I finally got a job as a teen. I wanted to work..
@@FairyKit How much time later did you actually get a proper job?
@@CST1992 I was in high school at this time. I could only get a job at the high school I went to as a daycare assistant
@@FairyKit Yikes. Anyway, hope you learned some useful skills.
@@CST1992 yeah it's been a good 12 years since that happened
There's another reason this would backfire against the CEO if he charges applicants ... A job offer that requires you to make a down payment is one of the primary red flags of a PYRAMID SCHEME. This will cause a lot of people who are aware of this fact ... to avoid the company.
I spent a weekend applying to an internal job at my company. The day after the HR lady sent me an email (no apology) saying they were no longer fillign the role. Not "we found somone else" not " sorry you werent successful" literally " we actually decided we were no longer going to have this job exist".
I asked if they then had any feedback on my application and she told me they hadn't actually read any of the applications.
I took a couple of " days off" after that.
Employers should advertise a position for two weeks, interview during the third week, and extend an offer of employment by the end of the fourth week. No multiple interviews; one interiew with the hiring manager, not with human resources nor with genitalia-wacking-on-the-table "techncial team bros"
There is no way in hell i would pay to apply at some company to get rejected anyway nope best to work for yourself.
The corporate world is a massive joke that includes their precious CEOs.
Story time! It's 2009, I'm living in nyc and trying to find a new job. I am at round 3 of interviews with Time magazine, and literally half way to the office when i get a phone call that the CEO cancelled my interview for that day, and they would call me back to reschedule. Fun fact. They didn't.
You should have turned up anyway.
I think Lauren told him it was an absurd, stupid idea. He didn't want to hear it from Lauren so he's asking the LinkedIn crowd about it.
Petition to charge employers for rejecting me. I could've used that time to do some dogsitting, doordash, etc.
The worst part about applying for new jobs (in the US at least) is when you apply via Indeed or whatever and then you have to fill out the same information on the company's separate web portal. It's such a waste of time and goes against the point of Indeed, which is convenient as hell.
7:12 that comment "but have you taken leave of your senses?" is so fitting it's wow!
Those CEOs belong in a madhouse I swear.
linkedin has become daddy day care for adults
I would live to pay $5 to apply for a job. They just have to pay me $50 for travel, $10 for meal, and $100 for not going to another interview, and missing opportunities. If I don't get the job then they will have to refund my $5 and pay me $1,000.00 compensation for emotional damage.
Why it does sound like an offended 15yo girl who complains about how unfair the world is? :D. So funny tbh.
4:40 This has happened to me so many times Josh. The worst is when the company has a location 5 minutes away, but they'll only interview me at a location 4 hours away (I tell them this fact clearly and they don't care or they have internal fights and politics between different locations). I woke up at 4AM to get to an interview by 9AM only for a certain company to not even know what interview questions to ask and they only had a 10 minute interview for me. The worst part was when they followed up with me, at first I was happy to get feedback for the first time in my life, but then it turns out they were only being nice because they wanted me to work for a custodian position (I had been applying and interviewing with them for chemical engineering quality assurance roles, then they had the gall to tell me to take a custodian position).
The kick in the balls is that you’ll never complete the application process cuz they’ll never call you back and they’ll keep your $5
Doesn't that guy who skipped the interview realize it's going to go in his permanent record?
?
what permanent record? that thing was useless in school, it's useless after
@@BdelaCAS I think he’s joking
@@BdelaCAS I was definitely joking. But I have been told by HR to rewrite a resignation letter in case I ever wanted to come back, because mine wasn't good enough and it would be in my permanent file. This was at a large university. I told them no. Within two months that university was a client of my new company I've now had for 13 years.
@@rickthomas422 that must be fun, did it ever come back again or talk with the same people?
A simple solution to this would be to have then recruiter and the applicant pay each other 5 dollars for each other's time.
The taxman wins again
Haven't even seen it, but I know that it is 🔥
Everytime!!
Best answer I think you can give for "Are you interviewing for other jobs at the moment?" is:
"Well, I've recently been contacted by headhunters for potential interviews, but your company seemed interesting / different which got me intrigued and here I am."
Always turn the question back to the interviewer in a way that is respectful but at the same time promotes your worth as a potential employee. Always remember they are looking for people on the same basis you're looking for a new job so no one is really has the upper hand.
Imagine only being able to apply for only one job at a time while waiting months at a time to hear back.
Charging to apply, that's a great idea!!! However I intend on charging for my time applying, interviewing, background check, drug test, talking to the idiots in your company and since I've run a company I'll be charging ninety bucks and hour, therefore I will have made ninety bucks during the interview alone. Had I thought of that idea I wouldn't need a job. Its astonishing how greedy and out of touch these nitwits are.
The worse part of it is that it's not even the type of job that everyone wants !
I think this is a brilliant idea. As a potential job applicant, nothing would save me more time than companies openly broadcasting how stupid they are and save me the energy of engaging with them, or worse, going through the process, get hired, go through onboarding only to THEN find out your managers and/or colleagues are people like this. Love it, awesome time saver.
The only company that asks you to pay to join is a multi level marketing company lol
I will say that I think Lawrence is annoyed the guy no showed to a scheduled interview, which is a lot different than not getting back to you. I would say its more like if a company scheduled an interview time and when you arrive they tell you that the interview was canceled but that still doesn't justify charging people to apply lol
Man, this is a great idea! I should charge 5 euros to every company I'm applying for, and I'll refund them if they don't ghost me.
Might not even need a job, tbh
So I commented, and big tough CEO, Lawrence Broadie, blocked me after posting a snide response to my comment that proved he didn't read it.
Electrify's customers and employees need to flee. He's not very good at creative marketing or communications.
So I was able to re-edit my comment to respond to to Broadie's snide comment, and suggested he stop digging...
And he took down the post.
This is an excellent video! It's true that we've learned that any employer asking you for money is a scam. Some of these people are really full of themselves.
I find your reviews extremely enjoyable. Keep up the good work! We need more honest, real people on the web.
I like to make my own little headcanon about CEOs Like these, like how this guy acts so indignant because ever since his "early entrepreneur" days he was treated as the President and everyone around him would lap up to him, so he literally does not know how to react to people treating him like a fellow plebian.
This is a prime example of why you don't treat CEOs different than the janitor. Someone keeps agreeing with this guy even when he says stupid shit because he's in a position of power. You should be vehemently honest with these people. It reveals their true colors, while also releveling their sense of self.
A lot of valid points! Excellent...never really thought about things in those terms.

Looks like he deleted it already lol
Little anecdote from my job search. An American company paid for a flight, back and fourth, from Europe to the USA to have a 1 day interview with me. So good companies pay you to travel to the interview. Accommodation included...
After about 20 years working, I'll tell young people you should not have any loyalty to any organization, they will turn on you in a second when its convenient and fire/replace you. Also to ensure no slavery, young people dont get married and dont get a girl pregnant, make sure she takes the birth control pill daily in front of you and both wear protection.

Promote this idea in videos and social media to help prevent more young people into this new slavery.
Plot twist - first he restricted the post to connections only, now I think it has been deleted. Much bravery.
I've been ghosted by companies so many times! Of course I could ghost someone else as a result.
And also, here in Ukraine, an actual scam going with charging people before signing them a test task, lol.
One thing about telling them that you are interviewing with other companies: It can actually be a plus! I.e. companies want applicants who are more in demand, plus will work faster to expedite the interview process if they like you (I've had that happen in the past). So it just kind of depends, and I've only had that positive experience with certain tech/startup companies.
I have a cousin who was really going through it...job rejection after another, he gets a application to one place, they string him along, he tries to pinpoint when he can come in for a interview, they hang up on him. He gets a call from one job he applied for, gets hired but he wasn't done. Late at night he drove to the place that jerked him around...got out with a bag of s***, lit it, and threw it at the door. He's been at the job a year now. I wouldn't have done it, but I understand.
That's so relatable. I've recently started getting messages regarding jobs openings. It's a beginner level job which requires at least 2-3 years of experience. If you won't give jobs to freshers (Those who don't have experience - Just to be clear) how will they get experience?
By the way, love your videos, thank you very much. You've helped me a lot, please keep up the good work!
pay to apply
totally not a scam
Thanks for doing what you do Josh! I am surprised and also not surprised at the nonsense you bring to the light. Employers are definitely unhinged. Keep up the good work!
I think this is one of your best call-outs ever. Good work!
I used to think that these kind of video are getting boring and repetitive. Then I realize that unlike most of the youtubers, even if your video has same theme, I learn a lot of other stuff, like how the recruiters work. Keep up the good work Joshua.
I applied for a government job. It was a good experience and I left feeling like I had a chance at landing the job. The group interview was nerve-wracking, never had a group of people interview me at the same time. I was later informed that they promoted internally but that they liked me. I got a call from them weeks later informing me of an opening and I went for the interview. They like me but they promoted internally. Weeks later I got another call about another opening. I politely informed them that I was considering my options and that I was no longer interested in working with them. You don't get to dangle a job at someone that obviously wants to work. The interview process was a multi step process and I had to meet with several people, fill paperwork, and conduct an assessment test. Never again.
Sounds like my experience applying to a police department lol
any government job ever
yes some are 2 years long!!
The place I work for was like my 4th interview in the same week. They were the first ones to make an offer and I had other interviews lined up to. They made me an offer I could not refuse. They knew my time was valuable, they did not try to haggle very much. They gave me an offer that was above market value for my role. Here it is almost 3 years later and I am happier then I ever been with any job.
Thank you for the info every time
Good employees may be hard to find, but finding a good boss is even harder these days !
Horrible bosses are everywhere. 😅
This is like the World of Warcraft joke that there's a guild application fee.
The number of days I spent interviewing and then being told the position went away -- filled in house, there was a reshuffle, etc. I should have been paid for that day of stress. I had managers that were royally pissed and still wanted to hire me and weren't allowed to. They kept in touch and spent months trying to get positions re-opened for me. Corporations be crazy.
The fact that the person that applied called back is actually the common courtesy and manners.
Josh - taking this idea a bit further..... So the corporate owner might look far more favourably on the candidate who pays him the most to apply for the job, rather than looking for the best qualified candidate. Bribery and corruption spring to mind!
_sigh_
I do that all the time. Yeah, I have to alter my resume to suit the job but I apply to as many as I am able and wait to get as many interviews as I can.
Another great video, Josh!!!! Keep up the great work!!!
We love ALL YOUR CONTENTS!
Looks as though Larry has been rightfully shamed into removing the post from his profile. Keep up the good work, Joshua!
Recruiters make around 200 bucks an hour when the worker only gets 25 an hour, which is why consulting agencies are so aggressive. They make hand over fist from their workers and it's sick.
Are you serious - $200 an hour? Don't they get paid on commission?
Dafuq kind of overpriced firm are you working for?
My last firm made 65 per hour while I made 45 plus a small perk
I'm sure the company before that was making 70 while I was making 35 per hour.
200 per hour better be a super niche skillset.
Yes, the real issue in society right now is that people looking for a job have too much money, and companies too little.
That does exists.
Upwork already charges "connects" to apply.
Yup
Maybe the employees can help with the electric bills at the work place. I mean they use the electricity to do their work.
not if they work at home
Every application to a job increases the pool of candidates to choose from. This is why, any additional applicant increases the quality of the final person hired to the position. Applicants should get paid for their time and efforts put in preparation to interviews, because them applying ultimately benefits the company. Pay me for my interview and I'll turn up, what's the problem?
Wow, I haven't even watched fully, but the CEO sounds out of it. I have to discuss this one, thanks for posting!
If this is not already illegal under the Federal Labor Laws; it should be by now. I was ghosted hundreds of times by corporations. Bunch of hypocrites.
1:50 did the CEO say they give a detailed feedback why someone was declined an offer? Which Planet is this?
He gonna get sued lol
Which planet does people sue over a feedback?
Junior Campos in most places you aren’t really allowed to say anything other than dates employed and position. Even going into detail of why someone left, or if they were fired, can get you sued. If someone losses a job offer because of what you said, then they have a case against you. That’s why smart managers don’t give their opinions on past employees lol
@@matthewperkins1169 wow, this is absolutely bonkers but thanks for the info
There was a pretty big name visual effects company owner, who got so tired of being called to meetings with film studios that didn’t result in more work for his visual effects company, that he started charging to go to meetings.
