I often wonder who they have working there and applying that is so much better than me they won’t grant me an interview. I’ve always been a top performer so it’s really quite puzzling.

Many positions are not actively hiring. I’ve been applying on linkedin and the same positions are reposted weekly for months on end, never getting taken down and never getting replies.

They’re cluttering up job boards because so few roles are available.

Top performers are divas. Much better to have an average youngster who can be more readily abused.
