I hear ya. I forgot to add personality tests, IQ tests, thank you letters, cover letters, letters of reference, and so on. If you are entry level or an executive, it doesn't matter that much these days as the hiring process is dumb.Flake wrote:^Yeah. I'm just getting impatient.
Not to crap all over HR, but a person should be interviewed by his/her boss, and the boss should be able to figure out if you are or aren't a good fit. It used to be that if you got an interview, that interview was win or lose, no more "tests".
Some companies don't make you jump through hoops (and the people I've hired have been based on one interview, nothing more) but it is rare.
Somewhat related, I've been contacted by a headhunter concerning a job in radiology equipment sales. Quoth Master P, I'm bout it bout it. I'd jump ship without hesitation to jet set and sell medical equipment. If it doesn't pan out, I'm fine, but it sounds pretty cool. Really happy working with the Art Museum, but selling medical equipment is "I have a small apple orchard in Maryland" money.
: good will prices are getting crazy around here. They are charging retail prices for used donated items all of which are sold as is untested 
. Plus they are going out of their way to ensure every item they sell has prices written on with permanent marker.
