What is up with Human Resources departments in companies these days?!?!? Why do they feel they have no obligation to respond to job applicants (let alone even acknowledge them)???
I must have applied for at least 2 dozen positions over the last several months. If I received acknowledgements / responses from 5 of them, that would be a lot! Big companies… little companies… all companies… Don’t they realize people are waiting on them?? Don’t they realize how RUDE they are by not interacting with their applicants and just leaving us hanging??
Furthermore, they refuse to make their contact information available – not on their web site – not in their “auto-acknowledge” (the few that had them) – NOWHERE!
Even ADP – a HUGE accounting company with recruiting as part of their web site – won’t offer up a phone number, even though their web page footer indicates a number should be present:
The footer says “If you would like to contact us regarding the accessibility of our website or need assistance completing the application process, please contact number below.”, BUT THERE IS NO NUMBER BELOW!!!!
I don’t get it!?! How is this game supposed to work???
