“I’m not legally able to provide interview feedback” -recruiter I’ve never heard that before. I know there isn’t a legal requirement forcing an employer to provide feedback, but law in place preventing it?
I've heard this as well but I can't quite figure out how would that work unless the feedback is "you were too black or too female for the role" How can you sue a company who says you were not structured enough or not well versed in topic X?
If they selectively give feedback to some people but not others, then those who didn't get feedback can also sue them for discriminating. So it's easier to not give any feedback to anyone
^ Not accurate at all. You cannot sue for lack of feedback even if the company provides it to others. Just no.
It's a CYA response. There is no legal requirement but they figure it's better to tell you nothing rather than something you could misinterpret.
Its a company policy...which is pretty common
Target... You must be out of the interview game for too long. I've never
It’s been a couple years, but previously I’ve received feedback. Then again, that was with 3rd party or independent recruiters so maybe they view CYA differently.
They don't normally day that, but they apply it in the form of never giving you any kind of useful information.
Profiling case
A stupid policy, the result of bitchy millennials who feel entitled.
No. The fear of getting sued for giving feedback existed before millennials were born.
Heard the same answer from Facebook
Companies used to never provide feedback for fear of getting sued. These days all the top companies provide feedback. There is no legal restriction. The recruiter is making that up. Just move on.
That's because you can sue them based on feedback. "Legal" part I'm not sure. May be just a excuse or might be true in some states.
