Corona is based because now you can larp on Zoom job interviews to be some elite high level individual by simply calling your friend with a nice Mercedes over before the interview is scheduled, you dress in a suit get a fresh haircut and take your laptop and sit in the back of the Mercedes with your friend driving you around and you pretend this is a completely normal scenario and surroundings being driven around as the interview is happening.
And once you start see the HR wagecuck start shooting shit with you after all the formal questions you just cut him off and ask if we can speed things up because you have things to do.
Boom, burger flipper job immediately accepted.

Went to an interview once that I knew straight away I wouldn’t get.
In the waiting room was a 9/10 young ginger girl, black man in full Armani suit and was charming the shit out of the receptionist, some variant of shitskin, and an unknown thing that I wasn’t sure if male or female.
On the wall is a big poster about equality, diversity and equal opportunity.

I don't know if it was jobs or what, I keep getting robocalls and places that call me for a job are always "yes remember that job you applied to 2 months ago". No, I don't remember and you shouldn't have put 'urgently hiring' online if you were gonna take 2 months.

One of my other buddies had the job a few years ago and apparently its a good job/work culture. He'd be making over 40k starting and working from home and would be getting paid to study for Series 7 etc. He lives in a very low COL area as well and he's young so 40k is very good.

I don't think I'd rather have his job since mine is super and has similar earnings potential in the long run but it just takes the piss. I applied to several entry level finance positions when I was applying to my current job and didn't hear back from anyone and this guy might stumble his way into a career. I'm happy for him though.

Interviews are fun as fuck. you have no obligations to these people (yet) and can negotiate your salary before even starting, if you get the job it boosts your confidence, and if you dont like what they say you can tell them to fuck off (i wouldnt recommend though).

You have the power. They need you.
If they dont pick you, no problem. You had fun and you can just go balls deep in the next interview all over again.

Any company that wants lucrative government contracts has to meet diversity quotas or else the government won't award you contracts. HR is full of liberal shitheads and dumbass roasties and minorities with a chip on their shoulder so that's another way white men are filtered out while darkies and mystery genders advance through the system. Also, letting employees know they are just a diversity hire is begging for a discrimination lawsuit.
>>25556977
Right, they shut the economy down as a reaction to the China Virus. Besides, both my employer and the company I interviewed with have a nationwide presence. Every single day I work with colleagues in at least a dozen different states. It's irrelevant if some states didn't have a lockdown because enough did that it affected the entire company for both my employer and the potential employer that interviewed me.

That said, I think hiring freezes (my current employer did it too) were understandable at the time they were enacted but now we've seen that we aren't losing money so we can hire again. Insurance is pandemic-proof. My company as a whole and my department both significantly exceeded our 2020 financial goals, which were set in 2019 before the coof. We're going to start hiring again shortly and I'm on the lookout for openings with competitors.

this happened to me before, did a weird as fuck interview with at&t a few years ago. I was in this small ass room in the back around all 3 managers, they were just drilling me with questions. Felt so uncomfortable during that interview, and it went on for over 30 minutes. After all that bull shit they still didn’t give me the job. It all worked out though, got a much better paying job afterward.

Businesses in the US love putting customer service ahead of hiring people that actually know what they're doing. You end up with people that will shoot the shit with you while they "work", but then whatever thing you asked for will be completely wrong and you'll have to come back to fix it, or try going to a different business where another "friendly" person fucks up.
