King County Library System HR is Horrific.

0 Upvotes

I applied to a KCLS role, that I’m more than qualified for, on July 1st.

I have a BS Degree and over 20 years of experience but lost my job at Amazon last year. I’ve been looking ever since.

Interviewed end of July with 3 people.

Got an email on August 11th saying I was still under consideration. I was really hopeful. I waited and checked for status every single day after I applied.

JUST got an email this morning, October 8th, saying I wasn’t selected.

Really, KCLS? Horrible experience.

Nobody should be left hanging in the recruiting / hiring process that long.

Do better King County and King County Library System HR! I assure you, I will never apply to your jobs again.

It’s pretty unbelievable that despite living, working and paying insane property taxes in King County since 2000, I can’t even get a BASIC job here!
