Don't get disappointed!

Are you job hunting now? I did not want to be mean. But these facts are quite true though.

These six points represent the new reality--is your job search on the mark?

1. Most resumes submitted through company websites don't get read.

2. Most screeners have zero understanding of the job.

3. Most of the stated job requirements aren't required.

4. Most job ads that say "Salary History Required" are fibbing.

5. Most managers don't want to ask all those interview questions.

6. Most of the hiring decision is "fit."

@jfook fit as in 'most of the hiring decisions at most companies focus on "fit" rather than textbook qualifications.'
