I've got a variety of past experience in things such as spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, etc, that don't quite make sense to generic healthcare company data scientist #69. Should I peel all irrelevant skills like that off of my resume? i'd figure out what skill sets various title/industry combos like, and comment out all but the one you're using. latex is cool like that.

so if a company offers feedback after a rejection then ghosts, should you follow up or just take the hint? hypothetically, if this same company also tried to call you on the wrong day for the interview, then changed the time a second time after confirming the original agreed upon time was confirmed, should you follow up? i normally don't write anything on glassdoor just use it for salary info but i'm sorely tempted to light them up, and maybe a happy medium is a terse "hi company, here's some feeback for you i'm mostly venting, i will continue never insinuating outside the space between my ears that any interviewer is anything but perfection because god forbid i be labeled that guy and even a polite but true glassdoor review can bite you in the rear end down the road

Notorious b.s.d. posted:no that's still quite polite. the cruel and nasty thing to do is to never send the rejection. i don't think i'm going to bother, but to me once you've tried to position yourself as doing more than the bare minimum, I'm going to judge you more harshly than if you had just gone silent. does that make me crazy? possibly.

qhat posted:Oh no the geeky software developer said a bad thing about the company, let me just remember their name for the rest of my life so I can gently caress over their careers. yes this is what narcissists (which a large chunk of dysfunctional HR/management are) do think “what would Michael Scott do”
