Project Risk to hire this Manager

I spoke about rip offs and cons in an earlier blog post. This is in conclusion to the one piece about some Project Risk Manager with over twenty years of experience who seems to be a unprofessional blowhard.

This individual applied to a entry level/intern position. His resume spanned over twenty years. Seems most of his experience was as a project/risk manager. I didn’t know why he applied, but I responded back to him along with 50 other candidates. Yes, I received close to 100 resumes for a entry level/intern type position that paid more in stock and experience than in salary. That’s how bad the job market is out there. And most of these candidates had masters degrees and real world experience.

Anyway, I sent out a few questions to the candidates to get a feel for what they knew and if we should move forward. This guy responded with two emails. One was proclaiming my questions were a joke. The other email was more fascinating coming from a guy with over twenty years management experience. Yes, this guy had the nerve to email me back a graphic of a middle finger. Some kind of 20+ year manager I guess. Call me what you want and tell me that you think of too many questions for an entry level position, but this guy responded to my ad, he sent me his resume, then he had the nerve to email me back a middle finger. I should spread the word to recruiters and other managers that this guy is a piece of work and shouldn’t be working. A manager with that kind of professionalism is kind of a joke. Who would want to hire somebody like that? Not me.
