@1b1 irony is HR EMG practice this. But tell the business not to do it that way. HR has never practiced what it preached. It's worse now with the despondent, plasti-faced CHRO. 4th CHRO in a row that has sûcked. Great job, Board of Deez Nütz.
@1a7 you need to stop spreading your false theories. USAA is notorious with the practice of “who you know, not what you know.”
I’ve been on quite a few interview panels where the hiring manager specifically told us who they wanted and told us to only ask these questions and don’t try to stump them.
The job posting is only to cover themselves legally, to make it seem like everyone is getting a fair chance.
The EEOC would have a field day with USAA if enough complaints got to them, just like what happened with the bank with CFPB & OCC.
People are getting them. I know someone impacted in the January lay off that just started one of those posted positions and they were not known to the hiring manager. People should stop stop spreading conspiracy theories on this site.
90% of the time the hiring managers already have someone in mind and your chance is practically zero. The other 10%, you might get it because the hiring manager is so horrible that no one wants to work for him. It’s well known here - this is the way.
If you have to ask then you’re not in the know. Best of luck on your layoff and job search!
Massive reorg coming resulting in layoffs. They are tapping certain people on the shoulder to keep them safe.
That makes perfect sense. It su-ks though because I’m more than qualified for a position or two that I applied for. Then I get the form email that essentially says I should pi-s off.
Please keep your expectations very low. Odds are not in your favor if you learned about these opportunities through an email, or through a search on your own.
For internal postings, the hiring manager already has a person they want, but legally they still have to go through the entire process and give token interviews to those who will not be given any serious consideration.
By law, the company has to open a new req for number of days, and interview people to make it look like it’s a fair process. However, there is always a candidate for the job, and the rest of the interviewees are just wasting their time.
In most cases, the hiring manager already has someone in mind. Last year my director was let go during her end of year review by the new ED who didn’t care for her, only for him to bring in this female from his previous bank (US Bank), who was a manager in their call center and knew absolutely nothing about being in a project role. I left first chance I got as did many others on the team.
They are just posting, they have some favorites already in their mind. Usually that’s what I seen. Recently in my area a director position was opened, instead of getting someone like a manager for that position our AVP brought someone from Amazon
