How to Have a PR Disaster

One of the reasons I started this blog was to give a voice to the job seeker who routinely encounters corporate insanity & unprofessional behavior during the hunt.  Countless articles have been published about all the things job candidates do wrong, but very few (if any) address the kinds of blunders that only a bureaucratic mentality could deliver. 

Case in point?  Imagine being this company's PR manager and having to pick up the pieces after downsizing 900 employees by way of conference call.  (You read that right - not in person, but via electronic means.)  If you saw George Clooney's movie, "Up in the Air," then perhaps what they say about life imitating art is in fact true. 

Anyway, here's the link:
