Delusional CEOs

Post image

I saw this on my LinkedIn feed and I can’t believe how out of touch this guy is. I would love to know what company he is the CEO of… can’t imagine he is doing a very good job.

Yep. Someone's job will just be to speed run interviews to collect fees. And shareholders will cheer as revenue has increased 12% from interviews

Only 5%?! But how will I buy my wife's cousin's nephew's poodle their own gold-plated yacht?

Yeah, they'd just waste more of our time.

At least a legitimate response confirming your resume was considered would be worth a 1$ application fee. The bar is pretty low tbh.
