I have also noticed each time that they have hired someone who does not have prior experience but has been with the group working at a lower level position.
I have messaged one of the managers directly and he stated that the group usually hires within the company first and acknowledges that he did receive my application.
I think this is really unfair and unethical and was wondering where I can file a complaint regarding this issue (work safe etc ) ?
I have also asked around and other people in the industry have stated that this store is really hard to get in and most times they want to hire someone, they will make a posting on their company website but they already know who they want to hire and the posting is just a front.
Coles notes:
-company has a job opening but each time they post it, they already know in advance who they want to hire and the posting is most likely false
-each time, they always promote someone within the group and end up hiring someone from a lower job position
-manager states directly that the group promotes within first and he did receive my application
-the store also hires people who have connections to the store (manager) but are not working for the overall group
**It is a high end retail sales store**
Have you guys experienced something like this?
Thanks all in advance for your opinions !

are you 12 trying to get a job at Holt or something? LOL filing a complaint with work safe on hiring practices? Are you for real?
I wouldn't want you standing there expecting a hand-out pay cheque either when you start thinking that doing work for pay starts becoming "unfair".
Congratulations, you've now set several rungs below ilovebacon, he has a job and a far better attitude. +7 for bacon.
