Ask HN: Should there be a monthly Who is NOT hiring post

6•WhoIsNotHiring_•3mo ago

There are some companies that are not really hiring, and do not respond at all, not even with a rejection, despite the rule to be committed to responding.

> Please only post if you are actively filling a position and are committed to responding to applicants.

Should there be a monthly Who is NOT hiring post? It will only be for obvious cases of companies not hiring. For example, cases in which companies do not respond at all, not even with a rejection, despite the rule to be committed to responding.

Maybe a monthly “why nobody hires you” post so people can ask for help who are otherwise qualified but not connected or whatever else is preventing them from finding a new job.

People not hiring is not your problem, people not hiring YOU is your problem.
