I got a message on LinkedIn about a job, it seems legit. The issue is as soon as I replied, she basically told me to apply as quickly as possible because it’s time sensitive.
I don’t know why this kind of rubs me the wrong way, I guess because I’m in a different time zone and I’m expected to literally drop everything for a job I might not even have an actual chance for.
Also she is the person who I would be working with, my potential future boss, and also the co owner of the company.
Am I overreacting? It just seems unnecessarily stressful idk. Also I’m very afraid of red flags now cause I ignored them at my last company and it was a nightmare.
take a 30 minute recording of your resume and add some audio like ‘Hi, please enjoy this reading of my resume you were suppose to read but were too lazy to and instead decided people should send you a video’
LOL I think they just want to like… assess how superficially charming and likeable I am through a short recording which is cringe as f… there’s way more to a person’s likeability than how good they are at presenting when they’re being recorded but ok.
Like wtf do they even want me to say? It’s for a virtual assistant job. OH HEY ITS ME, ALEXA, HOW CAN I HELP YOU TODAY? I AM SO EXPERIENCED PICK ME PICK ME PICK ME PICK ME
