that was the most insane interview process that i have ever seen.. at least in regards to the asymmetry between interview process and the work being hired for.. i joked that i was expecting at one point to be asked to draw up a linked list on a whiteboard, or what is the worst case execution of heapsort
'->' denotes 'if accepted'
email a resume-> fill out comprehensive online application with questions like 'what is your greatest achievement in life' -> vid conference interview -> in house interview to meet the hiring manager -> in house interview where you meet the manager you will be working under
minimum wage, and is even one of the least demanding jobs by cafe standards: philz is all pour over, and each employee is only ever responsible for four cups at a time..this is at least how it is designed, i'd be unsurprised if real employees are required to take on more work during a rush beyond what they were hired to do without any pay incentives to do so..
but really, do you honestly think that everything is fine with the way labor, especially on the low income end, is being treated?
there is a serious problem here that needs to be address instead of ignored by holding up accusations of hyperbole as more important to discuss
your response reads like a dismissal of the gp
there are important factors to consider in regard to your comment
regional: where do you live? where are these labor issues worse? rural? city? east, west, south, mid?
educational: how educated are you and your friends? are those being denied work well educated? primary and secondary school educated?
racial discrimination, gender discrimination, age discrimination, and on and on.. this is a very complex issue
but i'll address your comment being similarly dismissive: Everyone I know who wanted a minimum wage job got one without any experience, maybe I just know a lot of outliers though.
all of your friends working minimum wage jobs had 0 work experience? how old are you? 14?
