[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 460692, member: 11791"] Sort of. husband has been looking for a new job for quite some time. We keep seeing the same companies advertising the same positions... the ads come up every 6-10 weeks, far enough apart to know that they are in fact hiring... and then having to re-hire, and repeat. We KNOW some of these companies (he used to work for one of them). They [U]will not[/U] hire anybody without looks and charm and wow-factor (so, husband doesn't get in). But... the kind of people they insist on hiring does not have the skill-set needed for the job. And the companies WILL NOT change their hiring policies to match reality. The HR managers are usually young (under 30), and believe very strongly that image is reality. I don't know where this is all going to end up, but I do know that GOOD people are being forced out of the job market, and the "junk" staff are getting the jobs. [/QUOTE]
