Why do companies require applicants to speak dialects?

1. The strange recruitment phenomenon is no longer an isolated case. For example, some companies stipulate in their recruitment requirements that they must be able to speak dialects, and some also specify zodiac signs. In addition, the requirement that women be married with children, or be no less than 35 years old, has been openly written on the recruitment platform. I have also had the experience of looking for a job, and I have also encountered some relatively "reasonable" requirements, such as the age limit mentioned earlier, the professional background required for non-professional positions, etc. Compared with the excitement after the incident was exposed, I feel the same way. I am angry and want to dig deeper: Where does the company have the confidence to engage in such unscrupulous employment discrimination? Since I am engaged in supply chain related work, I have met many business owners. In terms of recruitment conditions, to be honest, most of them are relatively normal. Occasionally when I encounter something weird, the bosses just talk about it on a small scale and don't dare to write it in the recruitment announcement. I even thought that employment discrimination was really an isolated case. Until one time, when I was discussing business with a boss, when it came to his attitude towards employees, the boss couldn't deliver the goods at that time. In anger, he blurted out: I run the company, and I have the final say on what kind of job you want. I can come and go if you want, and leave if you don’t want to! Regarding this issue, I later asked several bosses one after another, and the answers I received, either tactfully or directly, were exactly the same as the previous boss. 2. Where does the confidence come from. Our country has gone through a historical process that took developed countries hundreds of years in decades, and the economy has continued to maintain a high growth rate. Today, although we still lag behind the first-class developed countries, we are not far behind. Against this background, the economic growth rate will become closer and closer to the level of developed countries, that is, it will gradually decline. This is an inevitable trend and is in line with economic principles. Coupled with the impact of the epidemic for three consecutive years and the continuing complex international situation, although "employment difficulties" and "recruitment difficulties" are common, employment difficulties still account for a large proportion. Bosses may think so because they think that the status of the applicant and the company are not equal, and they can manipulate them at will. When Liu Bei started his business, he knew that his small company had low remuneration and high risks, and he was looking for a big guy like Zhuge Liang, so he kept a low profile. And to become a company boss, although he may not be as good as Liu Bei, he is not immature mentally, and generally he will not do anything to look down on job seekers when he is in a weak business. Therefore, if a job seeker lacks ability or is overly involved, he or she will often face unequal requirements: the requirements are laid out for you anyway, but if you can't meet them, you can just not come, and you won't feel bad about it. 3. Let it go or resist firmly. In this way, if companies all do whatever they want, is it justified and justified? Must not be! First of all, companies are not looking for employees, not blind dates: two people can't get along and break up. As a cross-regional, cross-platform, and even cross-border social group, companies themselves have social responsibilities. To put it bluntly, this is not a matter between two people, but a matter between society and individuals. It must not be rash or willful! If job seekers repeatedly hit the wall and are faced with customized requirements, it will cause a lot of negative emotions, add up, and bring about extremely bad social impacts. Secondly, from within the company, any decision made by the boss or the company, especially the external decision-making, is a reflection of the company's soft power, or the output of the company's internal culture. This output also reflects internally. Let me ask you, if all employees in the company knew that when you recruit someone, you have to look at their birth date and their horoscopes, the employees would probably have to "reflect" on whether they have no "belief" in this regard, and whether they should focus more on catering to the boss's preferences. , can such a company develop well? Finally, the influence of soft power between companies cannot be ignored. At a time when more and more emphasis is placed on the scope of the industrial chain, leading companies affect upstream companies, and listed companies affect industry companies. This impact is not only limited to production and operations, but also includes all aspects of company culture including company systems, performance appraisals, recruitment and employment. The condition of being under 35 years old is itself a condition for internal promotion in large companies, and is often followed by another item: "Those with particularly outstanding conditions can relax the age limit to 40 years old (or 45 years old)." As a supplement, it has now become an open standard for recruitment. . What's even more sad is that job seekers have taken this condition as the basis for job-hopping. How many people have put an end to their career choices because they are old. Some people have called for legislation to address employment discrimination. I think legislation is necessary, but employment discrimination involves more moral aspects than can be solved by legislation. It is even more important to pay attention to improving the moral awareness of all people in employment and establishing a professional moral protection network that is different from conventional morals. Just like equality between men and women, we have been calling for hundreds of years. Although it has not been realized, it is improving, and we all know that it will definitely be realized. Eliminating employment discrimination will definitely be achieved, I just hope it can be achieved earlier.
