А потом поймал себя на неприятной мысли: с работой происходит ровно то же самое.Мы давно начали выжимать максимум не только из внешности, но и из найма, резюме, откликов, собеседований и источников дохода. И если честно, я уже сам живу в этой логике. Вопрос только в том, где заканчивается нормальная адаптация к рынку и начинается фрод. Читать далее Read more
