※ 引述《[email protected] (QCOM)》之銘言:
: 我不知道大家的經驗是什麼, 但我當初找工作時, 也是在monster上面
: 丟了不知道多少份 resume, 每天上去monster看自己的resume被查詢過多少次
: 次數總是成長的很快, 但是透過 monster找我的, 只有 IT consulting 公司
: 我每次一聽到是印度人打過來,我連問他是哪家公司都懶的問, 就
: 直接說我找到工作掛電話了 .

關於 monster.com 我覺得本篇文章已經幫他下了很好的註腳了

The corollary of that rule—the rule that the great people are never on the market—is that the bad people—the seriously unqualified—are on the market quite a lot. They get fired all the time, because they can’t do their job. Their companies fail—sometimes because any company that would hire them would probably also hire a lot of unqualified programmers, so it all adds up to failure—but sometimes because they actually are so unqualified that they ruined the company. Yep, it happens.

These morbidly unqualified people rarely get jobs, thankfully, but they do keep applying, and when they apply, they go to Monster.com and check off 300 or 1000 jobs at once trying to win the lottery.

Numerically, great people are pretty rare, and they’re never on the job market, while incompetent people, even though they are just as rare, apply to thousands of jobs throughout their career. So now, Sparky, back to that big pile of resumes you got off of Craigslist. Is it any surprise that most of them are people you don’t want to hire?

Astute readers, I expect, will point out that I’m leaving out the largest group yet, the solid, competent people. They’re on the market more than the great people, but less than the incompetent, and all in all they will show up in small numbers in your 1000 resume pile, but for the most part, almost every hiring manager in Palo Alto right now with 1000 resumes on their desk has the same exact set of 970 resumes from the same minority of 970 incompetent people that are applying for every job in Palo
Alto, and probably will be for life, and only 30 resumes even worth considering, of which maybe, rarely, one is a great programmer. OK, maybe not even one. And figuring out how to find those needles in a haystack, we shall see, is possible but not easy.

同樣一池子的人一直把履例表投給上面的所有公司,數字上看來好像很
可觀,可是對顧主及求職者來說,實際的效用卻是沒有。
