The guy is getting roasted in the comments too, especially about being unfair to NDs

    Does this guy not understand that 99% of calls from unknown numbers are spam? If he picks the person who always answers, he’s gonna be disappointed when they’re spending more time answering spam calls than doing intern work.

      Honestly more people in high positions need a vibe check every now and then. Rich and powerful people become so insulated and surrounded by yes-men they think their ideas are infallible. As negative as social media is, one of the nice things is it levels the playing field a bit and gets that brutal feedback straight to them.

      (Granted the truly narcissistic and arrogant will just brush it off, but for some, it’ll cause them to reflect)

    I love posts like this because they’re almost always from out-of-touch dickheads that I would never want to work for anyway. I don’t want to get laid off when you run your company into the ground, asshole.

    The most obvious issue with this is that most people aren’t (or at least shouldn’t be) always available for calls on their personal phones at random times during normal office hours. If you do it this way, you’re pretty much pre-selecting for people who don’t currently have a job and aren’t in school/college.

    Oh fuck not this guy leaving containment and ending up on Lemmy of all places.

    Ok so this guy is in my field and is 100% the grandpa he appears to be. The worst part thought is that if you catched this, he talked about a career in “I-O”. Most of you probably don’t know what he’s talking about, but he’s referring to the field of “Industrial and Organizational Psychology” which is the study of people within organizations. What makes this extra bad is that we actually are the ones who study stuff like “how to conduct ethical and high quality interviews”. So he basically violated about everything we recommend in our field why doing this and publishing it. Its honestly embarrassing that this will be many of your first impressions of my profession.

    Also the comments are roasting him so badly OP as the comments are likely filled with people who are experts in the subject, so its a deep roast
