What is an immediate “hard pass” for you in the interview process?
Post Body

Hard pass being something that you will not do as part of the interview process.

Mine are: Self-recordings, demo projects/assignments, and personality quizzes.

Self-recordings are dumb, unless you’re an actor or voice artist or something. Why do you need me to record myself basically reciting my resume and qualifications to you?

Demo projects/assignments are even more egregious. Unless I’m getting paid, then I’m not doing work for you. You have my resume. You can call my references. Hell, I’ll even give you a list of projects I’ve worked on so you can see my track record. But I’m not doing “homework” for you.

And personality quizzes are just dumb. What are you, Buzzfeed? If you can’t figure out if I’m a personality fit in an interview, that says more about your skills than it says anything about mine.

2 years ago McDonald’s hired me on the spot. They didn’t even wanna see my resume or interview me.

Then you’ve got it. Most don’t even have plan A
