Wait you have to do multiple rounds of interviews for jobs with uniforms?

Average process for a coding job is 5-7 rounds of 1 hour interviews lmao

Before COVID they also flew you out to their office to "get a feel" for you in person or some dumb shit

The standard is to take a bunch of PTO to be able to do interviews if you're working

You forgot all the practical interviews and programming tests lol

[-] GaveUp@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I did lmao

Though I would refuse to do any that were longer than a fixed 1 hour test

Article didn't really mention the kinds of jobs, although it definitely gave me office job vibes. I'm assuming it might mean the dress codes of the workplaces require a wardrobe they can't afford.

yeah, i recently got one of these bullshit email jobs and theres no dress code at all. there used to be, but since they've started exclusively hiring people my age (ie, cheap people, people without dependants) thats gone out the window. we don't have nice clothes, they don't pay us enough to buy nice clothes, and on the odd occasion that a manager tells us to 'smarten up' we all just nod and continue wearing hoodies, because fuck, what other option do we have. i think the managers know exactly what the situation is and that they literally can't press the issue without losing like half the team.

a manager tells us to 'smarten up'
