Comments by "Scott Franco" (@scottfranco1962) on "Why Does It Seem Like Companies Don't Give a SH*T About Job Seekers?" video.
My hiring manager story is I interviewed for a company and met in person with the hiring manager. He was brutal and dismissed me while reading off my resume as inadequate for the job. I was about 19 years old at the time. I got a call about a week later from a headhunter who said "how about job X at this company". Same company. I told him about being sent home by the hiring manager. He said "don't worry about it, this is direct to the manager of the group". I said ok. I went in, the group manager met with me, liked me and wanted me to meet with the hiring manager. Uh oh. I went into his office, and sure enough, same guy. I waited for him to recognize me. It didn't happen. He was talking about when can I start, etc. Keep in mind I was 19 at the time. I then said something like "you don't even remember me do you", and told him where he could stuff the job and walked out. Truth is in my older age self, I would never have gone back there. It was a pyrrhic victory .
