Doing as asked in regards to contacting

[Mortimer Firewood]

Is this not just common sense to follow an instruction if they cant do this would you want them to be in your workforce ?????????????

But i understand your point.

I was just thinking the same thing rob, I read a thread on AT earlier today and it was someone wanting a climber, they asked for people to pm them, guess what........people should read the thread and do as asked, or not bother. It doesn't make you want

To give them a job if they can't follow simple instruction.

You all must be getting old. Dont you all now that you have to respect the younger generation as they already no everthing. They dont do the running, make the tea, clean up, write there own c.v. or make phone calls for jobs ITS AGAINST THERE HUMAN RIGHTS. You be wanting to think for themselfs next.

I wouldnt employ someone who:

 

cant read a job post and understand it regarding contacting us.

can't be bothered to be proactive with regards to finding a job in the firstplace.

Can't put together a CV.

 

Fortunately these people dont waste my time in the first place as they are weeded out by the fact that they havent contacted me full stop or have called me with an "alrite mate got any jobs" attitude and when asked to send in a CV of quals etc cannot or do not produce one.

 

Ive had three CV's this week alone from people looking for work. All of them well laid out, all by email. One stood out because he worded his cover letter respectively.

 

Even if it turns out that he is crap at cutting trees - his politeness will have gotten him the try out day/ interview. And unless bellow the ability and standard I require for the given post would possibly, therefor, get him the job.

It's called politeness and is in short supply with youngsters- they don't realise they are doing it- obviously haven't been taught by their parents properly.

Their loss- give the job to an older more polite person.

Goes with texting that they slept in etc.

I won't have it:thumbdown:

 

There is some reasons, that some youngsters don't have manners, becuase yeah some don't get taught them, but others like me that was brought up properly, and taught manners, and get tarred with the same old brush, don't say it's youngsters becuase it's not just us

Someone had to crack on that one , long overdue ... Getting as bad as those that dont live anywhere aswell

[eddiegts]

Well said Rob if they can't even pick the phone up or send you an email I doubt they could turn up to work etc.. It winds me up just like the posts :a bit of advice on this job... Err tell you what I will come out and quote it for work out your costs etc...
