I failed my hirevue (I got a 40%) but my recruiter talked to the company and my previous manager gave a glowing recommendation so I got the job. I allegedly did a good job on the hirevue by all humans involved. Fuck this AI shit. The only way I got this job was because of humans, the ai did everything it could prevent the company from getting their preferred candidate. If the job market wasn't so fucked and I haven't been unemployed for 5 months in the past two years I'd give this company the bird and tell them to fuck off too, but I don't have health insurance and my bank account is drained.
