Comment The real problem is HR (Score 1) 61

A *lot* of HR is now outsource. They have NO IDEA what the hiring manager needs, or would like, and ask for years experience for entry level. (No, of course that makes no sense, neither do they have any.)

I'm reminded of an ad, what, 20 or so years ago, requiring five years of python experience... when the language had just been released three years before.

And they want degrees, *and* certifications (right, you've got $5k or so burning a hole in your pocket, for *you* to pay for Oracle, or some other certification).

Come the Revolution, HR will be led into the parking lot, asphault tossed over them and they'll be paved into the roadway, and thereby serve some use to society.

Comment Flashback to the 90s (Score 2) 40

Let's see, CEO plan to push into using chatbots, even though they don't do what's needed, but they'll say whatever the CEO wants. And they'll use that to lay off employees.

Flashback to the nineties - can't remember if it was an NYT or a WSJ article that talked about CEOs downsizing (never mind how the company keeps working) until Wall St. stops rewarding their stocks/stock options.
