HR Lady

Chill Amusing, Annoying, Clowns

A large part of what CHH writes in the excerpt just isn’t true. Particularly in larger corporations, HR does indeed both create and substantially alter job descriptions for listing after the hiring manager provides some basic requirements. This is why these jobs often require 10 years of experience with a product or technology that has only existed for three years. The hiring manager would never make that mistake. HR, though? They have no idea.

It’s obvious CHH has never worked in a decently large corporation because it’s very common in those that HR is the primary part of the org handling all the job description creation, maintenance, approval and listing on job boards.
