I have lost count of the times when a decent company lost fantastic candidates because the HR people (from another company) that were supposed to funnel them to the actual company were clueless tourists.

Some girl that I am not sure has passed 22 years old and reading questions (slowly and carefully) from a script is making decisions affecting the lives of people times smarter and working harder than her, routinely, on dozens of thousands of places out there, even now.

I am disgusted by the state of the industry. If that's the best that most of humanity can do then I am not impressed to say the least. "Sub-optimal" does not even begin to describe it.
