Some job specifications arrived in my email today-:A Support Worker in the "United Kingdom".
They didn't narrow it down.
Well, after all the UK is pretty small....
Naturally the advert specified the "Person Specification":
- "It is essential that you have an NVQ level 2 or 3 " (low level qualifications)
- "Please note that this is a qualified position so you will need a social work degree/masters or equivalent" (high level qualifications)
Two totally different sets of qualifications for the same job.
Total gibberish.
This gibberish was brought to you by "4Social Work" via Community Care.
I did write to "4Social Work" to query the above, but I don't expect a reply.
What's happening out there?
Well the dust still hasn't settled and nobody knows who is going to get employed by whom.
Usually it comes down to assortative mating: that is:
She looks like me and thinks like me so I'll give her the job.
Ever wonder why we live in such a wonderful world?
The system perpetuates itself, until it's all the same homogeneous system run by the same set of retards with a call centre in India.
Half the jobs in my old sector are now being done by Big Society volunteers, so why would a company pay for a single costly worker when they can get a dozen happy smiling faces for free?
No reason.
So they won't.
