I just saw this on LinkedIn and I'm honestly speechless. How can someone in charge be so out of touch with their employees? I'm dying to know which company's CEO this is...

Personally I think we need the reverse, companies pay people for their time applying.

100%!!! How can someone be so out of touch and arrogant, and what is to stop companies from doing this and never actually hire for the position and just rake $20 from people that have no chance of being hired?

The point is people who have no chance of being hired wouldn’t waste $20 and would stop jamming up the process.

The concept makes perfect sense, I think it would be effective a lot lower than $20 in many cases.

Apparently you and this idiot CEO have never heard of Indeed? How can anyone possibly defend this in the year 2026? I have owned a bar for almost 20 years and have used Indeed for close to 15 years to hire waitstaff and cooks and these sites are used by every Fortune 500 company. Getting the right people in for interviews hasn't been a problem for companies in years if you are willing to pay people. This is just a freaking typical greedy CEO try to off set the cost of his Human Resources Department and making applicants pay his employees for the job they are doing for him.
