I came across a VP Sales position today, which had been posted 7 hours earlier, on LI which Bravado is recruiting for and thought I would share my experience.
After clicking on Apply on LI's site, I was taken to Bravado's site to the URL included in this post.
After clicking Apply Now, a new tab was opened and was asked "Describe your ideal sales role to a potential employer", which is something we all did when we first joined apparently because I had some words in that box already.
After clicking Next, I was taken to a page which asks me to "Get endorsed by your network" and wants to sync with Gmail. I don't use Gmail (I'm a non-conformist) and clicked the tiny "skip" in the top right corner.
I was than asked to "Connect with top Bravado Members". The list includes folks like Tony Robbins (f-him), Daniel Pink (who?), Corporate Bro (ok, I'd connect with him), and some guy named @sahil (who apparently still wears a mask). I clicked the tiny, faded "skip" in the top right corner and was taken to my Bravado landing page.
No further confirmation that I actually applied to the job. Not even an email. Nor did I ever upload a resume, cover letter, CV, picture of my smoking hot wife, etc. Nothing.
Did I apply? LI says 22 others applied already in the first 7 hours. I don't have high hopes of getting the call, but most of the time there is some sort of confirmation telling me I have a shot at the job.
Has this been anyone else's experience?
