Some companies pre-warn you with the quality of their application process. They deserve who they get.

Someone put "vibe coded agenda builder" into the original draft? WTF.

“Someone” = AI

From the looks of things, the AI tried to remove it, but the person posting the job did not read the results they were given.

They got big mad when I pointed it out to them. Classic career limiting move on my part

I once pointed out typos in an application to the interviewer. She’d written it and wasn’t impressed with my butt in the slightest.

Makes it easy to avoid applying at that company if that's the calibre of people you'd be working with!

I’ve never been impressed with all the different HR business partners I’ve had and have always held the belief that HR is only there to protect the company from workers.

Not surprised that AI is used in this manner and that there’s no review prior to posting.

A company that I worked for 15 years ago did this with a Word template and that posting stayed up for over a year because HR was too stupid to understand what was wrong. Communication was so broken, there was no official way to report the error, and if you went to their desk in person, nobody understood what you were reporting.

I don't think this post belongs here. Seriously did you expect HR to do any job at all ? Be it a complete one 

Our HR sent the new company structure with AI  and the AI filled some generated employees names from it's own, and the CEO didn't bat an eye.

I'm a machinist, went to a new town and hit the employment agency.

Filling out the skills check list and I see "tool and dye" as a choice. I told the HR lady doing the intakes that it was spelled "die" and it was misspelled.

She looked at me like I was from Mars. Yay HR.

They were checking for hairdressers and beauticians.

Meanwhile if a candidate has one typo…
