re: #101 Kragar

I just want to find an HR department who understands the field.

“This is an entry level position”

“We require you to have at least two of the following certifications:” and then they list high level certs which take years to achieve and cost thousands of dollars.

Why would I waste my time applying for that shit?

I have been told by HR people that this is a standard trick when the company has an internal candidate in mind. They’re obligated to post the job publicly to see what kind of candidate pool they’ll have, but they tailor the job requirements to that one person’s resume.

The ones that really piss me off are the “entry level” positions that require 2-3 years experience. WTF? How is that entry level? If you’ve done a job for 2-3 years already you’re not entry level anymore.
