I work at a university here in the U.S. that understandably will do in-house hiring for a position that opens up. However there is a requirement that jobs have to be advertised to the public on the university website. Even if someone already working in the office or department is going to get the job, the job has been advertised and people are applying for it even though there's no chance they will get the job. A total waste of time and a cruel thing to do to people who are looking for work.

This may be somewhat off-topic, but it's zany enough to mention. In the town where I live there is a center for in-coming calls. The employees have no direct contact with the public yet the office has a dress code that requires the phone workers to wear a certain kind of shoe.

@rickstubblefield4685 I wish I could answer your question, but it's been so long that I don't recall the specific details. There may have been something about not wearing running shoes, but instead wearing dress shoes. Whatever the rule was or is, it was really silly. I think it was also a no-blue-jeans job even though employees were never seen by the clients/callers or the public. I wonder if the company lost some good workers because of the ridiculous dress code for people that no one sees. I wonder if the workers now work from home. I'm glad I never got hired!
