We're Hiring, But You Can't Apply

January 22nd 2008 21:16
I worked in retail for four and a half years. That little store made sense. Maybe because it wasn't a big place, and wasn't owned by someone far away. But other retail companies don't seem to make much sense to me.

I went out today looking for a second job. I was going back to Hobby Lobby to see if they had any applications. The last time I had been there they had hiring signs, but no applications were in yet. That was more than a week ago. So, I go in today and the girl tells me there are no applications again. What? Why do you have hiring signs up if you don't have any applications? I've already tried to apply online, but their website doesn't let that happen. It says to go to the specific store you would like to work for.


There was one other place that has done that to me before. It was the Children's Place in this same city. It doesn't speak well of these companies that they would put up a sign that they're hiring, but are not organized enough to have applications ready to give out.

Maybe I'm just annoyed because I will have to go back to Hobby Lobby again, but I still think it is pretty ridiculous.

Does anyone else have this problem on a regular basis or am I just lucky like that?

You hit the nail on the head with that one!
