It is not uncommon for companies to require applicants to go through multiple rounds of interviews before offering them a position.

But TikToker Callie (@_cal_cifer) thinks that anything more than 2 is overkill. In one of her recent videos, the woman explains that she loses interest in a job opening that requires her to sit down with recruiters 3 or 4 times.

    TikToker Callie has a strong opinion about companies that ask applicants to go through more than two interviews

    “If you’re asking me to come into three and four interviews, the chances are I’m just not interested in that job anymore.”

    “If your selection process takes more than a month, there’s a decent chance that I’m not interested in that job anymore.”

    “If I have to re-explain my entire resume at every step of the process because it’s obvious those interviewing me didn’t even bother to glance at it, I’m probably not interested in that job anymore.”

    “If you refuse to give concrete salary ranges until the offer letter is sent out, I’m probably not interested in that job anymore.”

    “If you don’t want to be honest and transparent with your applicants, that is your prerogative but good applicants are also not going to wait around and wait for you to figure it out.”

    Her video quickly blew up

    @_cal_cifer It’s a two way street. And I’m not afraid to walk. #jobmarket #applyingforjobs #jobinterview #jobinterviewtips #badjobinterview #baitandswitch ♬ original sound – Callie

    And people had a lot to say about the topic

    Are these real comments above? Who expects to be compensated for their time for a second interview. I get it - job application process sucks and it’s an employees market today but if you want a better paying job act professionally - shame on them if they miss out on you as a great candidate. If someone told me to pay them for their second job interview I would laugh them right out the door.

    I particularly liked the comment that questioned why an applicant would be asked "to re right" everything on their CV. I think they just answered their own question.

    I have slight dyslexia and I read past that normally. I have worked with engineers who can't spell but can design railroads like nobody's business, and I did their technical writing. Sometimes I find it irritating when people point out other people's errors all the time. If it's a calculation mistake and it could kill people, then fine. It is a grammar mistake on a report, then fine. But if it is in regular speech or communication, I don't really care.

    I am amazed at the number of people defending companies for this obnoxious behavior. I applaud the younger generation for standing up for themselves and saying "enough is enough". Do some of them take it too far? Absolutely. But it's become so ridiculous that I don't blame them in the slightest.
