Or maybe it's defensive against an industry who has developed ridiculous hiring practices.
- poincaredisk 1y agoThis is pure coping mechanism to explain to oneself that fraud is ok. Talk or read interviews with people sentences for fraud, they will all explain to you why it was in fact morally ok for them to do what they did.
- iamdbtoo 1y agoAnd you can say the same for employers that exploit their workers. No one is the villain in their own story.
- poincaredisk 1y agoI agree, but I don't see the connection. Asking people to do unreasonable hiring exercises is not exploiting.
- sbuttgereit 1y agoNo: it's a fraud be that legal or moral. If you want a job that someone is offering and they ask you for irrational, unreasonable, or just stupid demonstrations as a prerequisite for getting hired, you have one choice: decide for yourself the show isn't worth the price of admission and walk away... or you do the irrational, unreasonable, or just stupid thing asked to the best of your ability and keep your hat in the ring for the gig. Either way honesty and ethics dictate that you either play the game or walk away. The moment you cheat and lie: that's entirely on you and perhaps your own dumbass decision to train and enter an industry that works this way. Of course, I mean "you" in the abstract, not necessarily you personally.
- tempodox 1y agoIf their hiring practice is that ridiculous, that means the company has been warped by an unreasonable amount of bureaucracy. Why would anyone want to work for such a company anyway?
