I applied for a senior position at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Brno) with extensive, proven experience and a strong track record in the field. What followed was a masterclass in how global corporations lose top-tier talent through lazy automation and a total lack of human decency. The process began on their website with a remarkably "stupid" and primitive chatbot that provided zero value, repeating scripted loops and failing to understand basic queries. After being forced through the tedious and outdated Workday application process (which is a massive red flag for any modern professional), I received an automated rejection in less than 30 minutes. It is painfully obvious that no human being ever looked at my CV. The company relies entirely on flawed keyword-matching algorithms that treat seasoned experts like disposable spreadsheet data points. When a company automates its "human" resources to this extent, it tells you everything you need to know about the internal culture: you will be treated as a number, not a professional. By prioritizing broken AI and automated filters over genuine expertise, Thermo Fisher is actively filtering out the very people they likely need. If you value your professional dignity and want to be evaluated by a person rather than a poorly programmed script, save your energy and look elsewhere. This is a soulless corporate machine where expertise is ignored in favor of digital checkboxes.
