When you send in your application for a job, do they find it annoying if you call them about your application?

Or are you supposed to wait for them to contact you?

As a recruiter, it is annoying when candidates reach out regarding their application. Please wait for them to reach out to you.

Hey, mister recruiter. Do fake job listings exist? If so, why do they do that?

Depends how long it's been. If it's been a few weeks then yes you can call for an update, if you call after like one week then you look retarded even if the job is urgently hiring.

Except there is a reasonable amount of time to touch base to even just find out if the position has been filled. Some of you fuckers will string them along indefinitely.

Hello recruiter,
I hope you are brutally raped by a gang of roving barbarous bikers who proceed to enthrall you into a life of drug addled sexual slavery, never permitted to see the sun again as you spend the rest of your days chained up in a rusty corrugated iron shack in the woods of Oregon.

That's if you're actually in the process. If you apply and never hear anything that means you weren't selected. If you've been interviewed or had a pre-screen done and never hear back then yes you should follow up. Even if you aren't selected their ATS should have an automatic notification enabled to let you know you weren't selected but I wouldn't count on it.

Okay, okay, fine.
If you hire ONE candidate in the next 24 hours, you can be doomed to a life of drug-addled sexual slavery, never permitted to see the sun again as you spend the rest of your days chained up in an unfinished basement attached to a two bedroom home in the woods of central Pennsylvania instead.

HR is so fucking worthless.

Tips for getting a job? Somehow get the resume to the actual person who matters. Did I mention fuck HR?

Cope seethe and dilate faggot. Our job is to recruit for the company not to specifically recruit you. Try filtering through 300 bullshit resumes to find 5 worth looking at and tell me you have the time to personally apologize to and coddle the 295 people who aren't qualified.

You will speak to HR
You will pretend to like us
You will play along like a good boy because the alternative is starving

Don't act as if I don't play by the same roles. I get no special treatment either when looking for work.

Agencies like yours are a malignant cancer on the economy. They inserted themselves where they were not needed and created an impenetrable fortress of bureaucracy that destroys productivity to the degree of billions of lost hours. Your job should not exist, it's the reason why we simultaneously have millions of employers complaining "no one wants to work anymore" and millions of job seekers complaining that they can't get hired and can't even get a response.
Fuck you. Get out of my way.

Had a survey work firm make me go through the two tiers of interview bullshit, facilitated by HR, two months after applying. First job they wanted me to go on they revealed they had omitted key complications about my pay rate, the location of the work, and commuting expectations.
Every survey firm I've worked for that treated me fairly, was no nonsense about pay/billing, and got me on sensible projects had an "interview" that was a 15 minute rundown with the boss about their projects and expectations and then a verbal handshake.

It’s better to be on the rolls than not for a multitude of reasons, even if the funding is in limbo. You’ll have access to private charity programs like Museums for All to save money on entertainment, be eligible if/when funding is restored, and can make use of certain temporary assistance programs through charities in the interim.
That being said, it IS a paperwork-fueled headache to apply and get accepted, and the current admin is completely retarded and stripping this country for $$$. While your state government might be more competent, federal gutting is gonna dry up their coffers.
In the meantime, lookup your food bank’s info and see if there’s a local Food Not Bombs chapter. The food bank’s can get you some non-perishables and FNB can get you a hot meal one day of the week.
Good luck.

They've also made it completely impossible to apply off the street unless you already know a guy or are willing to get paid under the table.
I have had a single place I've walked in to have paper applications, and they never called me back. Everyone else asks you to apply online and schedule an interview, and half the time whatever employee they've assigned to run interviews doesn't even bother to show up. Or the interview is a 15 minute waste of time.

A girl I interviewed last year for an internship at my competitive company emailed me this year about internships. We didnt open our application pool yet but I just hired her anyway.

I didn't hire her last year because she was as sophomore and a junior guy with better resume applied as well. In hindsight she was prob a better applicant. the fact she emailed again played a big role in us hiring her.

If you look at what blue team is demanding before they vote to end the shutdown, you'll see it's almost identical to the list of allocations cancelled when orange man shut down USAID.
What's happening is senior bureaucrats and politicians are having a temper tantrum because their money laundry was shut down and they haven't been able to siphon off as much taxpayer money. Are red team the Good Guys? Certainly not, but they aren't the ones holding the country to ransom over spending they refuse to pass in a democratic manner (introducing a bill to Congress, like you're supposed to do)

In my gap year I applied for over 400 jobs, online and in person, and got one response and one interview, but I didn't get that job because they decided they needed a customer service guy instead of a developer.
This was what finally made my parents realise the world has changed since they were my age. They actually believed I could just walk into a store, shake the manager's hand, and be hired immediately
