Twice this week I've discovered job ads that were a perfect fit only to be told they've submitted enough CV's, both times the job had been up less than 48 hours. How can the client be getting the best people for the job?
Getting ******* angry about this now.
The market is tulip, the people we have to deal with are *******, I ******* hate this game now.
That happened to me last week as well. Looking at jobs on various websites, it really is dead in my area.
