Here’s a company that wastes no time in offending the
applicant with an overload of red asterisks (meaning, if you don't provide the information, you can't proceed with the application).
Strike #1:
No, bumble-headed HR bozo who programmed this application,
my Social Security number is NOT necessary in order to complete your silly job
application. I don’t care how important you think you are. You are NOT that important.
Strike #2:
I’m sorry, but it’s none of your business what I earned at
the beginning of every single job I’ve had or at the end of said job. And here’s something to read for the bumble-headed
HR bozo who programmed this application, Massachusetts Becomes First State EverTo Ban Employers From Asking For Salary Histories.
Strike #3:
So, now you get even more invasive by demanding the intimate details of my clients.
Do you seriously think I am going to give you such personal and private information
at this stage? How do I know I can trust you to not be a jerk with this private
information? (I once interviewed for a job, they checked my references, then they decided not to hire anybody -- I won't be so dumb as to let that happen again!) How do I know your server won’t be hacked (and ANY server can be
hacked)? And, how do I know you won’t sell this information to the highest
bidder? Sorry, but this is more than I can stomach. *Clicks* to close window.
And, shame on anyone dumb enough to complete this application.
