    Domanda di lavoro per Paddy Power: che cazzo?

    Quindi sto cercando un lavoro e sto scorrendo, anzi, candidandomi in massa come fai tu. Fai clic su un’offerta di lavoro per Paddy Power e ricevi rapidamente un messaggio che mi dice di candidarmi sul sito dell’azienda, cosa che faccio.

    È giorno lavorativo, vaffanculo. Inserisco le mie informazioni, seguo il processo di richiesta e alla fine finisco. Ora aspetto.

    Ma no, ricevo un’e-mail che mi informa sui passaggi successivi della mia domanda. Per prima cosa devo scaricare un’app completamente separata chiamata HireVue. Lo scarico e devo rispondere a una domanda su come andare oltre in un lavoro precedente (amico, ho 22 anni, non ho molta esperienza) e poi devo giocare a un sacco di giochi. Uno di abbinamento, uno di matematica, per poi finire con oltre un centinaio di scelte diverse di due immagini e dover selezionare quella con cui mi identifico di più. Ne ho catturati alcuni ed ecco quali sono le foto allegate a questo post.

    TUTTO QUESTO È PER UNA POSIZIONE RETAIL ENTRY LEVEL. Fammi semplicemente inserire il mio CV e VANNO A FOTTERE. TI GARANTISCO CHE NON C’È NIENTE NEL LAVORARE ALLA SCRIVANIA AL PADDY POWER CHE CONSENTI DI SALTARE ATTRAVERSO QUESTI TANTI CERCHI. GESÙ CRISTO.

    Comunque grazie per aver letto il mio sfogo. Fanculo Paddy Power (a meno che tu non mi assuma)

      Someone got paid money to create this and I find that fucking hilarious

      At work I’m the lad with his head in his hands too

      There’s no option to select a picture of Satan so I’m not sure how they are identifying suitably evil candidates to work for Paddy Power.

      Some of these are laughably obvious and some genuinely make no sense ????

      I applied for paddypower and ladbrokes before, not worth it, it’s like applying to NASA, IQ tests, numerical tests, video interviews with nobody, psychological tests, then I got an interview with ladbrokes and they said no because I was a student.

      All just part of the HR clownshow.

      The reality is that nobody has, or has ever come up with, a reliable way of screening candidates for jobs.

      So every now and again someone comes up with something they promise will absolutely be great, and manage to sell it through their management consulting business, to a bunch of gullible people for millions of dollars.

      Then companies realise it’s all nonsense and move onto the next stupid thing.

      Well, it’s a highly regulated industry, so as a customer facing frontline member of staff, a lot of the skills and personality traits tested there are absolutely relevant in terms of your people skills , problem solving , communications ability, numeracy and general cop on. Plus in organisations like this, there’s a lot of opportunity for career progression into areas you might never consider (tech support, IT, engineering, product management etc. etc. etc.) so it’s not necessarily a test for only an entry level retail position.

      Of course. If you can’t be bothered and expect someone to hand you a job based on a generic CV, maybe you’re not really what they’re looking for?

      Good luck with the job hunting.

      This is so moronic, is it a timewasting exercise to weed out speculative applications?

      #22 for example, the women are both being applauded. I assume the first one is supposed to convey modesty and the second one is confidence. Surely they are both desirable characteristics?

      I love these choices “Do you completely panic all the time or are you calm and confident?” “Definitely the panic one”

      Probably not the best time to apply for a job at paddy power – they are about to have massive lay offs

      Could this be a way for them to weed out neuro divergent applicants?

      I could see how they might struggle to spot the “right” answer on a couple of those.
