Hi Everybody,

http://madamenoire.com/64676/why-are-the-unemployed-being-asked-not-to-apply-for-jobs/

According to our friends over at theGrio, more and more employers are

becoming hesitant to offer jobs to the unemployed. Why? According to

writer David A. Love, because they’re assuming the worst of those

candidates. There’s a perception floating around that if you were laid

off, chances are you were given the boot because of your inadequacies

and laziness, since of course, employers always keep their “top tier”

workers. On top of that, others making the hiring decisions don’t want

to pay for extra training for those who have been out work for an

extended period of time. But most of all, cutting out unemployed

individuals who haven’t gained experience for a while helps make the

hiring process go a faster. Less candidates, less time spent reading

over resumes. Crazy, right?

Can’t tell you how jacked up this is on so many levels. You’re either

too qualified for some jobs on one end, or you’ve been unemployed so

long you’re all of a sudden not fit to work on the other. You can’t win

for trying these days! But what are your thoughts?
