Hiring Manager: “I’d never interview someone who had been fired.”

This mindset is exactly why companies end up recycling the same “safe” hires who never innovate.

lol imagine rejecting Steve Jobs or Oprah, both of whom were fired. truly elite hiring strategy 🤡

ngl if a manager said that to me, I’d take it as a red flag not to work under them anyway.

It’s wild how ppl act like being fired = career death

I’ve been fired twice. Once because of company politics, once because the startup ran out of money. Neither was about my ability. Now I lead a team of 20. His loss.

That hiring manager is lazy, not “efficient.” Writing people off wholesale is just bad practice.
