Of all the companies I've written about here, this one by far disgusts me the most. I have applied for no less
than a dozen jobs with this company over the past three years. The first time was back in June 2013 when I
applied for a presentation designer job posted through an agency (I didn't know
the client was LM). Because my experience and background were a 100% fit for
the job, the recruiter immediately contacted me. She explained that they’ve
been “struggling” to fill this job because they need someone who is not only knows how to use PPT but who also has a strong design background. She said she’d
submit me and said I should hear from her no later than the next day. FIVE days
later, I had not heard back, so I emailed her. Here’s her response: “I am sorry
it took me a couple days to get back to you, but I just heard from my account
manager that the position is closed. I would assume that they did not move
forward because of your strong graphic design background.”
????????
Following this incident, I continued to be contacted by recruiters
hired to fill similar jobs at LM, all of them thinking I’m perfect for their
opening but, for some odd reason, LM never agreed with them —and the recruiter was
never able to give me one single word of legitimate feedback as to why I was
rejected. I also routinely apply to design jobs they almost always are trying to fill, with no luck whatsoever. I wonder…could it be my age? Or, am I on their blacklist?
