Here's why I hate HR:

Applied to a job and requirements where:
> 3 years + experience with the good old combo HTML CSS JS (oh yeah)
> 3 years + experience with Vue or React (Vue specialist is here baby 😎)
> Salary higher than the average

Got a call on the same day from HR, and she asks:
> Years of experience with Java
> Years of experience with native android development
> Years of experience with Swift or iOS development
> *I started to get confused*
> Then came questions about my machine and if I had good Internet
> And only then she asked about the requirements for the job

2 days later she says I don't fit the job bc they work with different languages

That's why I hate HR, fr.
They didn't know what UI or UX meant.
And kept saying that Vue, angular and react where languages

Languages

    In this case, the potential employer probably hates HR even more than you...

    This is why, sometimes, a good recruiter (which is hard to find) is worthwhile, because they can have some knowledge of the tech and deal directly with the hiring manager in the client. Shame there're so few good ones around

    I hate them because sometimes their grocery lists don't make any sense. and because the only way to train the next gen or any gen sometimes is to invest time and retain employees.

    if we hired on people unfamiliar with a tech, but who were actually developers before at a lower wage, promoting them after a time period and deciding to retain them, we;d see such an uptick in qualified people that when the current gen retires we won't skip a beat.
