I manage our interview pipeline and none of our hoops involve AI interviewers. You can just not do them; that remains an option.

He's the CEO of a company that does AI interviews. He's promoting the company, not telling you uncomfortable truths.

> all companies think the same whenever they design the hoops their candidates have to jump through

Stop making hoops. Like what part of tech hiring do you really think you’ve innovated on enough to justify making new hoops?

Hell, you’d think with AI and everyone’s digital footprint you’d be able to reduce the number of hoops.

He’s not telling “the truth”, he is doing marketing propaganda trying to create an air of inevitability around his firms offering as a cognitive hack to get people (both potential buyers and people who might otherwise create pressure that potential buyers respond to) to be less likely to critically evaluate and respond to the offering, getting them to view it as simply a necessity for the future market that they need to adapt to rather than a choice with real costs beyond the sticker price that meed to be carefully weighed against demonstrable benefits.

He is not saying the truth of how it works. He is trying to build the world where it will be true.

Decades and decades of unfettered Capitalism.

- Labor protections getting weaker over time, plus courts usually siding with employers. Overtime laws got chipped away, and a lot of folks get called "contractors" when they're basically employees.

- Jobs can move overseas way easier now, so workers don't really have the same leverage they used to.

- Big companies buying everything up, regional monopolies forming, and those non-compete clauses making it harder for people to switch jobs.

- At-will employment, temp work, gig jobs, outsourcing, just makes job security pretty shaky.

- Decades of anti-union talk, pushing this whole "you're on your own" idea, and selling "flexibility" like it's some amazing benefit.

- More workplace surveillance, algorithm-based schedules, and automated tracking, just gives the employer more control.

People quite literally fought tooth and nail with blood sweat and tears to gain their rights over the course of years and years during the 18th and 19th century. Many quite literally died, and a lot more were beaten to pulp by the job owners who hired muscle to do it.

Those gains we made have slowly been eroded.

That is sadly a likely outcome. An evolution of the companies forcing/encouraging employees to buy the company’s goods.

When did sweat shops get automated?

People forget that in some parts of the globe sweatshops are the only jobs people can get, where are they supposed to work instead?

There is a middle ground, no need to treat people like slaves, nor throw them into the street without alternative source of income.

One such kind of jobs have leaders like in those mythical Robin Hood stories.

Those jobs certainly never go out of fashion, as seen in poorer world regions, where you as well say, people find new jobs all the time.

> It should be noted that not all AI interviewers are created equal—there’s a wide range of AI interviewers entering the market.

Maybe someone will make an AI to interview the AI interviewers and see which one is the best? AI's interviewing human candidates gonna have to go through this thing.
