Now you get it. That was what I was trying to say. They’re just trying to look like they’re doing enough to get paid.
I met a company that still has a machine in their production line, that uses 5.25" floppy discs and an amber monochrome display. “Why?” I hear you ask. Because it still works, it isn’t networked, and the floppies next to it are the only ones it’ll ever interact with.
Update: ffs I’m not defending hr, they’re usually incompetent buffoons. But they’re the incompetent buffoons you need to get past if you want to get hired. And I don’t know about you, but when Frito Pendejo said “I like money” I kinda agreed with him. Anyway back to my OC:
Why? They’re HR and hiring managers, not IT specialists.
Try seeing it from HR’s perspective. They post a job and get +200 applications. The success criteria is not hiring the best candidate, it’s hiring a suitable candidate. Given that premise, why would you read through all 200 applications, when there’s someone with a nice website and cool sounding software, who promise that their product can sort through the resumes and only pick the relevant ones for you?
Heck, I’m definitely going to be looking for an ATS testing site for my CV now. It really doesn’t matter what we think of it. If you want to communicate you’ll have to do it in a way that your recipient will understand, and if my recipient is a PoS software that can’t read PDFs, then writing my CV in latex is probably not the most effective way to communicate.
I thought that Musk and Trump kept their wealth as cash in vaults for swimming purposes.
Now now, he’s not lying lying, he’s just really into “alternative appraisal and accounting methods”. Kinda like that aunt who does her own research and swears by essential oils and homeopathy, but with money.
Let me give you an example. Let’s say that I have a truck load of coarse sand, like 25 tons. I manage to sell a single 10mg grain of sand for 1 USD. By appraising my sand based fortune on this single data point, I could claim that a gram is worth 100 USD, thus I have 2.5 billion USD tied up in sand. We both know that I obviously can’t liquidate my sand for that amount, but that doesn’t matter, because all I need is to convince a bank that my appraisal is sound and then use the sand as collateral for a 100 million USD loan. Some of that loan I’ll further invest in the sand business, after all it’s booming. More sand equals more collateral, and seeing as one bank was satisfied with my collateral, then I will be able to get other banks in on it too. And now I can live like a billionaire, all because I have invested in coarse sand. And if the banks figure out that I’m full of it, then what are they going to do? Take me to court and look like idiots for buying into my sand appraisal? And risk bankruptcy as it’s revealed that the collateral the bank has for its lending business is worthless? Better to keep quiet and prop up the sand mogul.
Nah, I heard that she ran out of tictacs, and had the nerve to ask Trump to start washing occasionally, instead of popping a mint before going down.
Limbaugh’s dead? I guess it’s been years since I thought of him last.
Tja hvad er ledelsen? Er det ikke mf’erne? For hvor meget ledelse kan der ellers være? For var det ikke halvdelen, der selv havde sagt op og de resterende tre, der er fyret? Jeg ved godt at det er djøf’er, men de kan vel ikke have mere end 8-10 ledere til 6 medarbejdere?
Why? Because you prefer it? I don’t.
9+1 = 10, therefore 91 is divisible by 10 and is not a prime … QED, I guess
Are we eventually gonna get more fusion […]
Either you mean fission, or the “more” could be omitted.
How do they vote? I mean can you bring a person into the booth with you? You can’t where I live.
If you think this is bad, then you haven’t tried navigating the MS academic offerings. Over the last 10 or so years, I think it’s been called “dreamspark”, “imagine”, “MSDN Academic Alliance” (I liked this one, it actually made sense), “MSDN AA”, and now “Azure Dev Tools for Teaching” or “adt4t” when talking with support.
rant mode ON
Everytime the name is changed, it seems something else changes (OK it’s a new product) and the way to access installers and activate it differs. I just want to teach, but every couple of years I have to spend days trying to figure out how to get my iso’s and how to renew the subscription. A couple of years ago, and mind you this was after I had had an active academic relationship with Microsoft for 8 years, and my predecessor even longer than that before me, we had to submit invoices proving that the school owned the domainname for our emails and website, as well as a letter from the ministry of education that we were licensed to teach this course.
The support staff is very professional and helpful, and we’ve always been able to resolve renewal issues. But each year we have to go through the process of getting through a maze of support pages linking to chatbots, to find the correct form to contact support. I think the link to support form had the text “Beware of the leopard”.
Som sagt, så var det ikke en holdning…
Det er her dog: hvis man har en aftale med regionen, om at regionen ikke vil betale mere end 3,9mio pr år uden at regionen får rabat derudover, og man samtidig med det, har potentielle kunder stående i kø for at give en flere penge end regionen ville give i første omgang (ok, det er et gæt). Så kan jeg ikke få ondt i røven over at den enkelte psykiater tager betalende kunder ind. Hvad jeg dog kan få ondt i røven over, det er regionerne, der ikke vil tildele flere ydernumre for på den måde at styre økonomien.
Det kunne godt være en dansk “The thick of it” møder “Dalgaards Tivoli”. Det ville faktisk kunne være ret sjovt. En moralsk korrupt og verbalt overfaldende dranker, der forsøger at opretholde det image, hans cirkus er baseret på. Samtlige medarbejdere er klovne, der skal udfylde alle roller, men falder igennem, uden at det er meningen at være et “stur stur nummer”.
Måske Adam Price kunne trække på erfaringerne fra Borgen og skrive serien.
Tag fritstillelsen og skriv en bog under pseudonym. Hvis enhver er sin egen lykkes smed, så maksimer profitten.
I wonder if it would work to upload resume.pdf.exe to an ATS, and fill out the form with enough BS exaggeration to be sure that person will see it.
