HR is mostly make work for women. They don't produce anything. I get having someone to resolve company politics and social strife and standards to manage that, but most HR work isn't that.

Most HR departments are staffed solely by single, overweight, bitter, shrewish women who are drunk on power and looking to Kamala their way to a promotion.

My experience with HR people is they are generally bottom tier of business school graduates. Some exceptions but not many.

For the most part, he’s 100% correct

The bar for performance for most of these positions is extremely low, they’re rarely held accountable, most people outside of their department really know what they do. The only redeeming thing is that they’re usually the first to get canned when things get tight because they’re typically redundant and are a dime a dozen.

I have noticed that I don't even get a second look when applying now. I have over 25 years of experience in my field and not one call, email or anything for any of the jobs I have applied for in the last 6 months. AI is great apparently.

ATS systems are awful. The internet and online application systems have ruined hiring.

This is why I love my company. We actually have a team of people who just focus on recruiting and read resumes. No elimination via questions that mean nothing.

Automating recruiting isn’t going as well as many had hoped.

Automated resume screening needs to go. It's a plague.

I de-select allowing AI to process my CV when I’m allowed to. I’m in the same boat as you, too experienced and too expensive for Houston.

HR can eat a bag of dicks. I once had a chick ask me why I was Sysco certified when I worked in IT. It took me a minute to realize she didn’t know the difference between Sysco and Cisco.
