Reply To: turning potential employees away at your front door

ooh, someone’s bitter.

with an attitude like that I’m not surprised you get the short shrift. Try a little less arrogance and using a modicum of sense (like making an appointment, or submitting your resume in advance of cold calling).

In my area (graphic design) I’d never talk to someone who just landed on my doorstep. I’d always want to vett their cv/book before talking to them. Same story in NY or wherever.

Feel free to disregard, but that’s the real world. Slagging off receptionists isn’t going to help you with this one.
