    Be greatfull you didnt get that position because if they say asking about responsibilities (aka the role) is a no-no, then they’re scamming.

    Task failed successfully. Any company willing to get defensive in writing clearly has some horrific practices.

      That is true, but a shitty job is still better than homelessness and starvation, Both dodged a bullet and also really sucks

        I personally think a horrible employer is worse than homelessness. I actually spent less time hungry what time I didn’t have a place and always had the shelter at night before getting back on my feet.

        Shitty job; I woke up nauseous every morning. Always had this sort of dread. A general depression from the abuse and general humiliation of the workplace. We really know how to grind the average white collar to ash and dump them in the garbage when they get older.

          I agree with you 100%, with a small caveat, that it is an individual choice and preference to choose between a shitty job and homelessness. The streets can be hard, and getting back into a house is almost impossibly hard for so many people.

          It is a shitty system by design. no good outcomes and arguing about which shitty outcome is less shitty is a waste of time. I really hope you are housed and have a good job.

    That’s literally what at least 30 years of job interview advice has been encouraging people to ask during an interview

    While I believe companies do this, I don’t believe this image is real. There is literally no reason to blur out the company. You didn’t get the job. What do you gotta lose by showing the name of the company.

    Just takes all credibility out of this image

    Why protect the identity of the ones saying this? Could save some people wasted time applying, or even worse, someone might even get hired by them.

    if this isn’t reportable and resulting in massive, back-breakingly MASSIVE penalties, then the system is fucked and laws must be rewritten.

      The ones who set up this system are the ones who are running that company, so good luck rewriting those laws
