Do you think it will grow beyond 25% ?

I don't believe that. Why would the company allow an extra person to be in the room? I could believe parents drove them to the interview, maybe even said hello, and waited in the lobby (which is weird enough) but this article says a portion say in the interview and answered questions.

What! That is insane. There is a 100% chance that I would not hire a person who brought a family member with them.

My supervisor was talking about this, they were interviewing for a position and and the dad wanted to asked question because she has anxiety.

This would not be ok in my company. It’s useful in screening people out

They can they are disabled and because of the 4+ year shutdown they don't know how to interview or talk to people.

That's not a disability. That's stupidity. And they should be rejected from all applications (job, housing, etc) for being inept (by choice) to handle basic life skills.

There was no 4 year shut down! After a year, nearly everyone was vaccinated. At some point, people CHOSE to stunt themselves and their own family.

But having a parent isn’t a reasonable accommodation. So nope.

Then they won’t get jobs. It’s that simple. They can go home and live on mon and dad’s dime and parents can change their adult diapers. It’s gross.

Sadly, some people are defending them, I also understand something very bad happen to them, but they have to move on.

+1. There's basically zero chance this is true, but it does give people a chance to be upset about Kids Today, so they lap it up.

Exactly this.

You all feel superior now so the thread can end.
