With that said, corperate greed has forced us here in some manner. Employees see record profits from their companies only to live paycheck to paycheck. But I get your point. There is hardly any work ethic to be seen in todays applicants. This is why I search FB, search local criminal records, call previous employers (actually, contacting previous employers in my field is required by law), etc. If I see an applicant who has had more than 2 jobs in the last 2 years, I require a damn good explanation before bringing them aboard. But usually I don't give them the time of day unless they are in a location I am in need.
Man. I got my foot in the door at my company in 2015 and at that time getting on here was highly coveted. There were 70 other applicants for the position at that time, I just happened to know someone and had a halfway decent resume. I considered it lucky and still do. We had 45+ year employees retiring from this place. It was the job to have. Now, we can’t BUY good applicants.
