Do you do the virtual one sided interviews? - eviltoast

I’m still searching for a job. On some of these applications they want a 1-3 minute video of me just answering questions to myself and send it in. If feels scammy, but maybe I’m just not doing it right. What do you do?

    Major companies like JnJ do this, so if you wouldn’t bother then you’re likely turning away good jobs.

      I would argue you’re never going to be treated with more respect by a company than during the interview process. Once you’re on the payroll you have an incentive to tolerate objectionable treatment. If a company is willing to be this audacious in the interview stage I would have little hope of it getting better in that regard.

      If your employer doesn’t respect you, it’s not a “good” job, even if it’s a well-paying job.

        Why do I have a feeling they are talking about the horrible company, Johnson and Johnson. You know, the company that has been actively fucking America’s best interests and health over for decades

          Every healthcare company has been fucking America for decades. They’re all unethical as shit. I’m just giving general advice to get a good job and paycheck for yourself.
