People are furious after this young woman shares the brutal way her potential employer rejected her job application. Zanaya Jones shares that she applied for the position of cashier at a grocery store, however, after hearing her cheerful response on voicemail, the hiring manager decided otherwise and simply messaged her to not call back.
Finding a job is the most stressful thing a person goes through in their life.
Experts agree that the current market is unlike anything they have seen before. Potential employees have more options than ever before—corporate culture, work/life balance, autonomy on your personal time, and an ability to be authentic in the workplace are all high on people's lists.
Now with this current market, recruiters advise people to show up as themselves, bringing their full energy to the table.
However, this woman's story of a rude rejection from a potential employer is like no other, and TikTok is simply stunned at this.
The employer was calling presumably to schedule an interview, however, after hearing Zanaya's voice message—during which she playfully sings a greeting to her callers—the employer left her with a very rude rejection.
The hiring manager left a scolding message in return for her cheerful greeting and cleared to her that there is no need to call back.
"Yes, Miss Jones, I recommend if you apply for a job and you expect somebody to call you, that you have a more appropriate, um, response on your, uh, voicemail. So, uh, thank you for applying and no need to give us a call back here at Harris Teeter. Thank you."
People were speechless on how unprofessional could her voicemail possibly be?
Well, guess what? It's a pretty average voice greeting from someone who sounds like they have a fun personality.
Another fun thing you want to know?
The place where Zanaya applied is a grocery store and the position for which the teenager applied to work is as a cashier/bagger.
Listen to the voicemail.
TikTok surely had a lot to say about this rude rejection.
