Is anyone else experiencing selection reps who yap on and on about their careers but don’t let you get a word in to learn about you so they can adequately represent you? I fear I’m really sc--wed, as mine just talked about himself for a solid 20 min of our 30 appt and provided very confusing feedback

Consult Partners Hiring?

Heard from an external recruiter that Kyndryl is hiring 20+ Consult Partners in the US, at $250k+ base. How accurate is that?

Would anyone recommend pursuing the opportunity? How's the interview process? How's the current situation at the company (layoffs, contract orders, etc)? Are the current projects really based on cloud, AI/ML, IoT, as their website says?

Been looking around lately.
I turned on my LinkedIN account again.

Now, I get dozens of messages a day from +91 recruiters. There will be 4 or 5 from different 'contracting agencies' asking about the same position. Each claims "I am primary contracting agency, Saar. No other agency can contract. Do not redeem job offer, Saar."

They all just ghost after you bother to send a resume. Generally, they want an identity theft level of information and almost every time they bait and switch positions.

If you send them a resume, you would have been better served to wipe your ar-e with it and throw it in the toilet.

Don't reply to these people. Don't feed their resume harvesting. Ignore them. Block them. They are scammers.

Go to jobs.now and apply to stuff their PERM applications.

Only through grass roots action can we take back the tech industry that was built using US tax payer dollars and US consumer money.

End H1-b scam now!

How do the jobs posted in rd 2 look in the subsurface space? Big cuts?

I've learned the hard way that just because jobs are listed online doesn’t mean the company is actually hiring. Some postings feel more like window dressing than real opportunities. It wastes my time and achieves absolutely nothing. It's infuriating, if you want the truth.

The offers are above the market. Judging by their boards, they need marketers, designers, strategists and sales. It's a mess there. Take advantage of chaos.

Apparently our "leadership", for lack of better words, believe that none of the current employees who have dedicated decades to the company and know its people and processes are competent enough to be promoted.

HR must have been wooing the Stellantis hires long before walking the Ford employees out as their replacement are announced with 48 hours. No wonder morale is low.

Given all the layoffs that are sweeping through the company and still to come, are any of the jobs listed on oracle.com actually open? Can anyone inside comment as to whether they've seen any hiring happening or is it frozen for 60 days?

Per meeting with director today 75 pos are looking to be added to FTC ABS/Amisys teams for the 3rd and 4th qtr...seems like a lot. These pos will be internal and external applicants.

So I seem to remember during the Facebook and Google massacres, there were reports that people were just getting asked to come back, not even interview.

I wonder if the same thing will happen here.

If you were laid off, would you come back of asked?

job listing does not exist on their site for some reason; apply!

I’ve been applying for jobs since May—over 500 applications so far—and haven’t gotten a single interview. I’ve even seen some of the same jobs I applied for get reposted. What is going on? Is it just me, or is everyone experiencing this? It’s really wearing me down. My daily commute eats up 3 hours, and I desperately need either a remote position or something closer to my home in Maryland.

I heard several HR peeps got laid off just last week.
Then I see that Jackie Richardson, HR Executive is hiring several Talent Advisors.
My question is to Jackie and/or her team please.
Are the job postings just for show, because protocol require you to post ? In other words, are these job postings reserved for the peeps who just got laid off and having to re-apply for their old jobs back as a different job title?
Is posting for these jobs a waste of everyone's time?

Am I alone here in saying that I've been run ragged for months and the heat keeps getting turned up? I'm so stressed out.
Each time I get through a new hurdle of some monstrous new process and weeks of back to back meetings, I get notified of something worse. And expectations for cost cuts with no defined process and several layers of teams that will turn the ideas down.
I feel like they are trying to break us.
All I'm seeing is panicking, fear, knee je-k reactions, finger pointing and extreme demands. Endless classes, requirements, special projects, release dates being pulled back, endless meetings and people in my group phoning it in while I'm being pushed over the edge.

I looked for jobs. Where are they??? If I do find anything remotely compatible with my interest, skills and experience, it pays 60% of what I'm making at GM. I feel trapped and abused.
Am I alone? Does this feel horrific to you too??? I've never seen anything close to this, even during the 'great recession'. What is the answer here?

PS With everything going on and the bad decisions from managers, it seems like GM is DOOMED.

IBM's moving our jobs to Costa Rica (and other low cost countries)... We are also pushing bots as well to help hiring managers through self-service. If you used these bots you know that they are not good at all.

Some of talent acquisition employees located in Raleigh, NC will be kept but the rest will be let go.

This plan is nuts. The management is clueless and IBM will pay for this mistake big time.
