Some of the shit I am seeing right now while job searching is just appalling. I have had to opt out to having an AI review my resume twice. The employers CLAIM they won't see that as a negative, but I have my doubts. The sketchiness of some of them is amazing too. Check this one out:

And the language, it makes me want to get stabby. "Are you a visionary creative leader with a passion for social media and an eye for aesthetics?" Can you go fuck yourselves?

Also, having never worked in the UK before, I'm pretty shocked that they want to know my sexuality and whether I am the same gender I was assigned at birth. That is on a LOT of job applications and it is not always skippable even if I thought it was a good idea to skip it. Totally wouldn't be legal in the U.S.

A couple of days ago, I applied for the position of "Creative Content Creator." I believe there is a phrase in the U.K. for being laid off- "made redundant..." I think you're made redundant when you get hired for that job.

On the sexuality/gender thing. They are actually required to ask this in the UK. It would be illegal for them not to ask (I think it depends on the company size though). This is because employers are required to report these statistics to the government to prove they are not influencing hiring decisions.

If 10% of applicants are homosexual, but only 2% of your hires are, then you are in trouble, because it shouldn't make a difference.

Well at least that's for a good reason.

unfortunately it is an age of bullshit. they basically use bullshitting skills as the first level filter for job applications. the way people advertise their positions you would think you are applying for a job at google or sth.
