What... an odd accusation. Maybe it's different where you are, but I've never worked for a company where I had much say in hiring, except if it was an internal hire and someone I knew applied and someone asked me how that person was. I still couldn't make any choices on requirements and my say only went as far as my boss decided it did, and that was just once in about 25 years of work.

Most of the time we either keep begging for more headcount and hear just maybes, or we get introduced to the new hire for a position we didn't know was open.

You're not hiring people. What's difficult here to understand

The part where you implied many of us are? You said part of teams, so I took that to mean you meant part of teams that get new hires. If you meant only HR or recruiting people, then I don't understand why your wording suggests it's a significant portion of the people reading the post.

No, what would make you think I am? I do work in customer service (MSP, customer contact etc) so I tend to speak in a way that is trying to be less inflammatory, but I dunno why that would make you think I'm a bot. I just answered your question.

It's a very literal interpretation of what I said
