Being unemployed in today’s tough economic climate places applicants at a disadvantage and limits their negotiating power. Companies exploit this by making it difficult for applicants to find payment information. Recruiters purposefully withhold salary information till the interview in order to use you to prove they conducted a range of interviews, justifying their fees.
Many applicants accept a lack of power because they assume that’s just the way it is. But that’s just what unethical organisations want you to believe. Report recruiters asking for ‘cost to company’ and payslips.
INFORMED AND EMPOWERED
Companies block me from their Face Book pages, preventing me from informing and warning potential victims against attending interviews without knowing what the salary is for the position they wish to apply for.
Companies remove my comments and fail to respond even though I’m asking them relevant questions.
As an agitator, I won’t accept this without a fight.
