I find it quite interesting that even though most of the population is suffering the effects of a severe downturn, there seems to be such a lack of "internet-savvy" IT staff that all that is needed to get a job is to have previously had a job in the same field. That's particularly true with big companies such as Yahoo or Google, often forgetting that those companies employ between 10,000 and 20,0000 people. I'm no expert but my guess is that the chances of those companies having some people that are not the brightest is pretty high.

I see this in Telco more than anywhere else. Telco's need to evolve and become more 'internet', more 'Google', but more often than not there's a lack of staff that can actually check that a candidate is indeed anything more than a doughnut eating talking head. But hey, if you want a good doughnut, you've come to the right place.

Anyway, you have to agree it's actually pretty funny.
