Job searches
So the other post was, unclearly, about someone offering jobs. Now: people asking for jobs.
What the hell do I do for the emails that start “Hi”, or “Hi WA”? The ones where they sign a first name only? The ones without CVs?
Do I just ignore it, because they don’t know any better, or do I respond just to the one or two people who acted intelligently? Do I eventually tell people we’ve hired that they should do x or y in later job searches? Can I get away with just pretending none of it matters because I have a really bad headache?

What are you hiring them for? I mean, if the job doesn’t require any intelligence or familiarity with normal human interactions …
Whether or not you choose to hire them I don’t think you have any obligation to teach them how to fool some other employer into thinking they’re employable. Quite the contrary….
