Most companies hiring process seems to be a mix of incompetent and malicious.

Many posts are for jobs that don’t exist or they have no intention of filling. That should be illegal.

I had a posting the other day that said python, Django, react. I actually heard back from the recruiter, but he said the job was actually for Java. He didn’t seem concerned that that’s a whole other language.

Unfortunately, they don’t really have an incentive to be better. They get so many applications that they can be inefficient and still get candidates.

I’ll save you the read.
He got frustrated and sent the company a message. He never received a response. The end.
