Yeah, this is crazy, if you already went through other stages, they should find the time for you.

I’m wondering, perhaps we need a site tracking all those companies that post job openings without actually looking for employees. So we don’t have to waste our time on them, wanna they might also get some consequences from this practice when they actually need new talent.

Even was told now companies use “AI” to filter out resumes before a human even sees it.

Companies have been doing this for 20+ years. The only thing new about it is that they stuck “AI” on the label.

Quill7513 ,

I have a bachelor of the arts in computer science. Landing that first job was so hard because companies filtered out my resume because they were looking for a bachelor of the sciences. Fuck me I guess for my college mandating I take at least one class a year about how the world works instead of just computer stuff

BS generally has more math/algorithm requirements so you understand what your code is actually doing.

If they actually need that math knowledge expecting the BS is perfectly reasonable.

That’s one of the things I like about the movie Three Kings. They make no excuse about who invaded who and who was ripping off who.

Are you tired of those ‘woke’ and cushy liberal toilet paper made from weak and pansy processed cellulose? Try Uncle Cletus’s proprietary silicon carbide formula enhanced with sand sourced from All American beaches! Now you can show your patriotism by bleeding red from the ass during every trump-approved toilet visit

I think he should be saying “Hmm, no…?” Because “oh” is an interjection of surprise but “Hmm” is a murmur of premeditation. Also, the vibe of a hesitant question contrasts the excitement and assertive certainly of an exclamation point.

Tylerdurdon , to mildlyinfuriating in Applied for a job and was asked to do a live interview. But all I get is this.

They’re probably doing it on purpose to be able to claim “they can’t find qualified personnel.” That would allow them to file for H1B and hire a person from India at a significant savings.

I’m not sure who to report that to, but USCIS oversees the H1B program.

Got a hold of HR and it’s not a mistake it’s "due to high volume of applications we have so many slots available. We recommend you check it several times a day until a slot available. It’s a fucking scam and not playing.

Confused_Emus ,

What that tells me is they have such high employee turnover that their application process is just a disguised pool of warm bodies to pull from as needed. I’d avoid diving in if at all possible.

RecallMadness ,

Take what HR says with a grain of salt.

If they’re gaming H1B, They’re not gonna say “yeah we’re faking it to get cheap indentured immigrants to work for us”.

After working in a really big company for a while and seeing how incredibly degrading the hiring process is nowadays i simply woulnd’t want to apply for a job for those companies.

I just signed the contract for a much smaller company and the process was:

  1. Apply online… via mail and just attaching some PDFs :D
  2. "We are interested in you, we would love to do an interview. Can you come over or do you want to do this Online?"
  3. Meeting them in person, having a nice interview and chat afterwards.
  4. Agreeing to do this and sign the contract.

Thats it. No Booking time slots to getting interviewed bullshit. This is just ridicilous.

scytale ,

Even with big companies I’ve never seen one where the applicant had to find a schedule for the interview, instead of the recruiter reaching out out and checking availability. This is odd even for bigger corporations, or maybe times have changed (I haven’t applied for a new job for a while now).

Quill7513 ,

They have changed. This is pretty typical shit these days. Usually its a calendly link

NoneYa ,

This is pretty typical for my area. They usually give you 3 or more time slots to choose from.

But I’ve never seen one where it had nothing available.

OttoVonNoob , to noncredibledefense in [draws pistol with malicious intent]

There is a wonderful movie about a dog fighting ww1 pilot who is a pig. Both pilots guns jam so they start throwing shit at eachother. It’s called Porco Rosso, it’s a wonderful film on Netflix(atleast in Canda). If you haven’t checked it out I suggest you do. "I’d rather be a pig than a faciast:

Belgdore ,

If it wasn’t so sexist I might agree with it being a good movie.

julietOscarEcho ,

? It was pretty clear that the male characters’ behaviour was not being celebrated. Porco is troubled and self-hating, and Curtis and the pirates are explicitly villains. Sexism is real so I think depiction of it is necessary, so long as it’s not applauded or encouraged. I might even use it as a start point for talking about misogyny with my daughters one day.

ProtecyaTec ,

Sexism in a movie set in the early 1900s!? Say it ain’t so!

Belgdore ,

Well damn, I guess Birth of a Nation gets a pass on it’s racism because it was made in 1915.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

It’s absolutely racist, and it was at the time. That doesn’t mean it’s not worth watching, it’s fantastic as a window into the culture of the time. It was super popular (among white people), and it helps to understand segregation and racial conflict. It’s one of the most important films of all time. What it portrays is absolutely disgusting, but that doesn’t change the importance of the film.

Belgdore ,

That doesn’t mean I can’t criticize it, or other movies that don’t match the modern standards.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

Sure, but the criticism will be unfair unless you take into account the culture of the time.

Belgdore ,

I don’t give a Fuck if I’m not fair to a movie. It’s a movie. It exists to entertain. I can’t be entertained if I’m distracted by obvious flaws.

I understand critical theory, and there are lessons to be learned from any piece of media. But real life isn’t film school. Racism sucks, sexism sucks, it is valid to say that movies that contain these also suck.

You can’t write a program in HTML.

End of discussion.

linkhidalgogato ,

programing languages arent use to make programs they are used to program machines which is exactly what u do with html.

PeriodicallyPedantic ,

The “program” is the package of instructions that tell the machine what to do. The instructions are written in a programming language.

With a markup language, the markup is the input to a program (like a browser) that tells the machine what to do.

But I think it’s not really boolean, it’s a sliding scale. Especially with so many programming languages being interpreted or JIT compiled. I think it’s less a programming language than many other programming-related things, but more of a programming language than, say, a slideshow.

mindbleach ,

they are used to program machines

Which HTML cannot do, because if it could, that would be called a program. That’s what the word means.

HTML makes documents. It’s a markup language. It’s not even Turing-complete accidentally.
