No mood for training

As the recession deepens (who says it is finished!) so is the pool of applicants which is widening that is why the companies are in no mood to take raw talent and train them according to their corporate culture and skills. They would rather have somebody else do the heavy loading and then give the job hunters a few extra thousands and lure them away from their jobs. This is a dangerous trend, but the fact is that it is also the applicants’ fault that they are being led into this type of trap. If anybody is not trained to do a certain jobs but have the theoretical skills to accomplish, would that person be able to get hired.

I have seen numerous times now that even entry level position entails at some kinds of experience. As I have told countless times before, somebody has to “bell the cat” but nobody wants to spend thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours in training somebody when somebody with those relevant skills can come in and have the jobs. The employers are in an envious position right now. Just because the skills do not match and the employers are not willing to invest in their human resources means that the unemployment will remain high for quite sometime.
