I've noticed a pattern where HRs from mediocre companies are extremely arrogant and ask unnecessary questions. Whether it is from their tone of voice, to asking ridiculous questions about a candidate's personal life and things that are already on the resume, why do they act so holier than thou? Now FAANG adjacent companies and their HRs/ first point of contacts are always empathetic and very clear in asking sensible, relevant questions. Why don't companies realise that their first point of contact is what affects their brand and hiring unqualified folks makes it worse. Have you ever noticed this? What do you think can be done to make this/ candidate experience better?
HRs in mid places are usually coming from really small / unknown companies and feel like they’ve made it hence the arrogance. Folks in big/decent companies usually have come from wonderful education bgs and workplaces and if not, have worked hard enough to reach where they are. That humbles you, I feel.
Makes sense. Mid companies also don't invest in their employer brand / training as much so they don't end up attracting good talent. Thanks for your comment :)
Feeling really shit as I’m moving from a really good company to a mid brand because of recession and no jobs in mkt and literally feel the difference in HR. Sometimes I wish these things never mattered to me but they do, almost as much as the salary.

Smaller companies have less collective mindspace available to spend on how effective is their HR function . This is why these mediocre HRs get away with their BS at small / mid-sized companies.
Once you've reached a certain scale in organisation size, every process and practice has been reviewed and scrutinised by multiple people so it's hard to be totally incompetent (also harder to be exceptionally good, but that's beside the point).
Mediocre companies hire mediocre HRs that come from mediocre training in dealing with people. Also, when by the time you reach FAANG adjacent levels as a company, you have matured enough to realise that we are all adults and like to be respected, and any company with a lower bar for this than its peers is bound to lose out on good talent unnecessarily.
Mediocre people dont come from mediocre companies. Mediocre people make companies mediocre
