    Your faith in corporate HR departments astounds me.

    OTOH, don’t count out reviews, promotions, discipline and other “interviews”. Also meetings, so many meetings.

      No faith in corporate HR, but concrete knowlege of how payroll works. No company is your friend, they are there to make as much money off of you as possible. Internal meetings are not external interviews, if you were hired to do a job interviewing for a positons and you went through 50-60 people a day with no results, they would replace you.

        Don’t forget Ghost jobs and all the temp/recruitment agencies out there, but I did forget the “I never hire anyone” bit until your comment prompted me to check the pic again. Also, listings that only exist certain nepotism or racial/class hires, but they stild have to interview x number of excluded candidates for appearances’ sake.

        Personally, there were a few times I was head-hunted by what turned out to be middlemen trying to fill a quota. No in-person interviews, but to say the jobs they were recruiting for were a bad fit for my public credentials would be an understatement.

        I assure you, corporate non-sense knows no bounds, and I’m happy for you, that you’ve had the luck to avoid encountering some of the worst and most demoralizing of it.
