Why do some HR always act condescendingly?

Personal reasons and company culture will make HR feel superior

To give you a typical example, I applied for a Japanese company a few years ago, and when I received the interview notice, I still felt I was really looking forward to it, but after seeing the arrogant look of HR, I gave up the idea of ??working for this company. The reason is this. During the interview, I was sitting on a sofa very politely. The HR was a female in her thirties, dressed very delicately.

But I couldn't stand it as soon as I opened my mouth. That domineering personality came out. It was so awkward. During the entire interview, I felt like I was a prisoner, like I was being interrogated. Later, I was admitted, but I still refused, not for any reason, just because this HR was too good at pretending, and if I thought about it more deeply, this company would not be much better.

HR has experienced many kinds of this kind of experience, it is really diverse. So why do these people always act so condescending? I analyzed several reasons.

HR has now become a "career shelter"

Nowadays, no matter what major you are in, you can become HR. This means that many company HRs do not have a professional background, especially in many small companies. Most of the HR people are forced to become HR because their major is very unpopular and it is extremely difficult to find a job, or it is difficult to find a job that matches their major.

These HRs have no professionalism or professionalism at all. Most of them are fishing in troubled waters and cannot find a job in their major, so they just hang around in the HR position.

2. Recruiting "official" thinking

Some HRs think that they are at the pinnacle of their lives in this position. Their self-confidence is inflated and they boss around the interviewers. In fact, they are careful Think about it, these so-called HRs do not have very high academic qualifications and have no professional advantages, but they think that they have the power of life and death of the interviewers. At the same time, some HR people don’t pretend to understand during interviews, and the questions they ask are ridiculous and unprofessional at all. But you have to pretend to know everything. It's so tacky.

But thinking about it on the other hand, maybe behind the pretense is inferiority complex, because he has no real ability but wants to show his strength in other aspects, which makes sense.

3. HR’s own assumptions

Why do you say this? Because many HRs are very pretentious because the company behind them is very powerful, so HR himself will also include himself as a powerful person. camp, but it really has nothing to do with him. It just created an illusion for herself, as if the company was more awesome, so she was more awesome. In fact, she was hiding her ears and deceiving herself.

4. It has no connotation in itself

I personally think that some of today’s HRs really have low emotional intelligence. If you say that you are just showing off when recruiting, but if you usually It's also like that, being in contact with people is so annoying. You are good at dealing with interpersonal relationships, and as a result, you have a very awesome attitude, but I have to say that this type of person can really scare some people, such as freshly graduated college students.

5. Company culture is like this

Company culture is also a factor that affects the quality of employees. There is no basic requirement of customer awareness in the culture, and employees are treated like machines. , there is no soil for respect and equality, everyone from the boss to the employees looks arrogant, and HR is no exception.

In fact, when encountering this type of HR, we don’t have to embarrass ourselves, weigh the pros and cons, and finally make a choice. An HR represents a company's image. If it really brings you some emotional discomfort, there is no need to waste time with him. After all, good HRs still exist in this world.

At the same time, we can also find a lot of clues and information through talking with HR during the interview, which can allow us to judge the basic situation of the company and whether we choose and accept the job. Bring some inspiration.

Those who are arrogant in interviews and like to suppress and belittle

If you meet a arrogant HR who will suppress and belittle you throughout the interview, it is not recommended to join such a company, because once the HR There are also problems with being arrogant and showing off the company's ethos from the side.

Of course, some HR people like to use stress interviews during interviews to assess the interviewer's ability to withstand stress, etc., but this is not applicable to all positions. Moreover, stress interviews should be based on mutual respect, not Malicious suppression.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, the stress interview is only a link, often interspersed in the interview process, not the entire interview. If HR is arrogant throughout the interview, this is not as simple as a stress interview, but may be due to personal attributes.

So, what you need to understand is that anything involving personal attacks is not a stress interview. When facing HR who deliberately suppresses and belittles you, you must be cautious!

2. The questions are vague and the professional questions are unknown

Both of the above situations are not good signs for the interviewer. The first one shows that the company does not have high requirements for HR. If it is high, then the business management will not improve much; secondly, the company itself has problems, and it is not recommended to choose.

3. Speech is full of routines and condescending attitude

Some HR and interviewers are both employees of the company, but they always feel that they are superior. This situation shows that HR does not pay attention to job seekers. In fact, it also reflects the low demand of enterprises for talents.

For companies that do not have a high demand for talents, the remuneration and attention after joining will not be high.

If you encounter the types of HR mentioned above, you can consider them based on the actual situation.

Finally, I hope every HR can find his or her own position, be kind, thank you!
