Suddenly got a flashback to working at IBM shortly after 2000 and they were still using a token ring network in their offices.

The replacement (Town Hall) is bound to only certain types of licenses so you might want to check if your usual organizers for big events fit. If I had a dollar every time Microsoft inconvenienced me with their licensing system I could buy the fuckin' company

We had/attempted to have our quarterly IT town hall today, approx 1300 people. I don't know if it was our infrastructure or Town Hall in general but it choked so hard on it most people left the meeting because the audio/video was either constantly buffering/out of sync/or just frozen completely. It was glorious lol

My experience with recruiters when trying to break back into IT space this year is that they only care at all about you if you already have the work experience that would let you land a job entirely without their help. And all the recruiting companies I've seen have awful reviews by both recruited people and the companies that use them for staffing.

Run into the stuff where for a job application you have to sit in front of your webcam and pitch yourself/answer questions and then send that video off into the black box void that is job applications? I never have and wouldn't do those. Dystopian rear end poo poo

Off the top of my head, NiSource (just outside the F500), parts of Honda America, and a really recognizable clothing retailer are still using Lotus Notes. Discover Financial was still using it in 2016.

A group I worked with was using this for a position they were hiring for. It seemed like it cost them way more time than just not doing it. They had like the entire team review all the video applications, and they had way more videos to review than you would have people do interviews, so it was just a huge time sink for that group.

Lol of course it is. It's not a dystopia unless both sides get negatively impacted by that kind of garbage. It really doesn't make sense to do it unless you're also combining it with the normal screening and you just only look at the videos of those who pass that screen that you might want to interview anyway. Idk. It's loving dumb. One whistleblower talking about filters to automatically trash non-white apps based on the vid screen would be something to see for sure. Glad someone has gotten good jobs with them but it's like an extra layer of selling yourself when an interview is usually always soul crushing in that respect anyway. (I lucked out with my current job in that I only BS'd maybe 10-15 percent of the interview instead of the 50-70% that is typical)
