I could go on a rant about hiring practices in our industry... >_<

Vandal • 03/29/2015

Oh why is it the boar who always turns out to be the pig?

Renzo • 03/29/2015

Nasty pork XD

Doesn't matter how you get the job, just as long as you do good work and they keep you. Told my cousin that when a company hired him solely to fill out the corporate golf team (he was a former pro) over twenty years later, and he's an executive with the company and hasn't played gold for them for ages. Turns out they loved his work more than his golf!

WAtheAnum • 03/29/2015

weelllllll why i saw that comming...

MishaFox • 03/29/2015

I didnt see the boar among the people who saw her in the stairway. :)

So she is going to be hired because she has a good pair of boobs? Kind of scary but I wonder how often that happens in real life!

Flexico • 03/29/2015

I do admit I'd love to rub her ears ... but I think I see her beauty in a different way than that guy. XD

Boe • 03/29/2015

This sounds like pretty normal decision making to me, from my experience.

FTL • 03/29/2015

Poor Jessie, things of late seem to have really taken the wind out of this poor tiger's sails. If ignorance in hiring wins then I suspect she will find the drive to make it work in her favour... and put ignorance back in the box it belongs in!

In reality, replace 'hot' with 'female' and you get the scenario where a traditionally male dominated workplace wants to be seen as 'progressive' and 'equal opportunity'.

Rusk • 03/29/2015

As one who has been the roo in this situation, I can tell you this is pretty much accurate.

Bayrain • 03/29/2015

Getting jobs are like getting cars, deals have to be made.

soriac • 03/29/2015

Aaaaw, sad tiger, that's a sight I cant stand, would somebody please give Jessie a hug?

Sadly, this is a very acurate description of a typical job interview, at least from my non-artistic experience. It is a rare thing to find the perfect job or the perfect job applicant, especially in the office sector, cause these jobs always differ in the details, and even for the same job the tasks tend to change with time. That's why some period of adjustment is important for any new job. Maybe Jessie just need this time to get used to a-dobie products :-)

Dragon Furry • 03/29/2015

I know the job hunt marked all to well x.x Not only do you need to match the job, you also need to match the one that is doing the interview. If you get it off good with the one heading the interview you have a lot better chance of landing the job. You can't ignore the human factor doing a interview.

Feles Dictatoria • 03/29/2015

Yes, I have my concerns about the hiring process, mainly its biases and lack of meritocratic values. I fear what happens next when I leave collage and enter the work force eventually. I hope this rings a bell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP0sqRMzkwo

Michan86 • 03/29/2015

Seriusly aslong as i get hired i wouldent give a shit about why they hired me :)

Timmie • 03/29/2015

Quite a few people end up being hired for jobs they did not train for in school. A good interviewer would look beyond the training and see if the person has the will to learn the new position.

Interstate2011 • 03/29/2015

Poor Jessie.

Silverwolf • 03/29/2015

Not the right qualifications? Did you see that expert rendering of the color yellow?

Ryan Martin • 03/29/2015

And this is why I am going to the defense industry.

Koyote • 03/29/2015

Yea same thing for welding. "Oh, you can pull a trigger ok you can be a welder then!"

ndrvr • 03/29/2015

Better bite a bullet before bills are due.

Jess without her street hogg due to selling it 'cause bills? Inconceivable, right?

Sereverus • 03/30/2015

BURRITOOOOOOS~ are delicious!

darkkitsune • 03/30/2015

you know... this seems like a receipt for a sexual harassment suit in the making. heh, specially if that boar tries to make a move and tells her the only reason he had her hired was because she was hot? XD

jprime • 03/30/2015

@darkkitsune You mean recipe.

TheJestor • 03/30/2015

Okay first off, most people think making a website is difficult, and the answer is not really. I learned it in highschool, designing websites was actually fun and I could make a fully illustrated website, without ads and have working links and everything, in just under 60 minutes. That was all while using html, not Adobe Illustrator which makes things a bit more simple and alot quicker, ended up making a site in under 30 minutes.

ShotgunKid • 03/30/2015

I don't know, but given the fabulous civil rights progress of the past thirty years I have a feeling we just saw something blatantly illegal there.

choo choo george • 03/31/2015

Oh yeah, been there more than once, what really helps is having a real good professional resume and when interviewing showing a lot of interest and passion about the job. Ryan Martin, if you're going to the defense industry, better pick up on a lot of specs & requirements ahead if you can. I've been in the defense industry in aerospace in QA/QC for a long time, and manufacturers look for experience more than anything else.

Jan • 03/31/2015

@Rusk All I'll say is that I was asked to help in recruiting more than once. My co-recruiters tend to be the boar.

@Michan86 Where was that video you sent me again? The one about the "long term contract"? XD

@TheJestor Illustrator doesn't export HTML ;)

Robin Bobcat • 03/31/2015

WB101 • 04/01/2015

Awww... gives Jessie an understanding/sympathetic/friend-zone hug (Well some-old-coyote had to do it.)

glares at Mr. boar with shimmering yellow eyes... and will leave it at that for now

Interstate2011 • 04/05/2015

hugs JEssie

Swift • 04/22/2015

@TheJestor Illustrator is vector graphics editor. In Illustrator you can make something like logo or banner, e.g. Google's logo, just defining text and adding some effects. Or create shapes out of editable lines. Textures, complex art - even stylized like this comic would require Photoshop or something similar. Well, Photoshop got some elements of that, but it's only because Adobe had weird idea to turn it into universal design tool

@banner But this job for her is like car maintenance for rocket engineer. Not simpler, but totally wrong area.

Matt • 07/13/2015

and then she's hit with a sexist dress code
