Well I've been out of the job market for 4 years now but decided that maybe a little extra folding before christmas might not be a bad idea. So I decided this morning to go job hunting in the retail world (yes even though I've been reading and paying attention here) as they are no doubt hiring for the holidays.
When did the retail stores start requiring you to either go online and fill out the application or sit at a kiosk in fornt of the store so that anyone who wants to read over your shoulder and see your personal info can do so?
And what is with those insulting, irritating, disgusting attitude tests? You know the ones I'm tlaking about the one that are filled with questions liek How much have you stolen? And then only gives you certain dollar ranges to select from or otherwise treats you like you are an idiot or a thief or both. I mean why dont they go on ahead and ask Have you stopped beating your wife? It would fit with the rest of the questions.
I hate that as I just filled out an application for pep boys and got denied an interview or anything because I apparently failed their stupid attitude test somehow. That is so irritating that the company doesnt even want a human involved in the hiring process anymore and prescreen anyone out who might need to explain thing in a face to face interview where questions and answers belong. Those fraggin tests need to be outlawed. (Does it show that I'm a bit peeved about them?
