[quote=Anonymous]Yes, this is true. I previously worked at a boutique creative staffing agency in Bethesda as their MarComm / Web + Graphic Design recruiter. At least once a week, I had a parent accompany their millennial child to our office for an interview. These were often the same parents whose kids put me on hold so they could grab their parents to join them on their phone interview, prior to coming in person. They made my life a living hell when their kid couldn't get either a temp or temp to hire job because surely there is nobody more qualified than their special snowflake. It got to a point that I had to add in a note to my interview instructions instructing candidates that they couldn't bring anyone to their interviews and post-interview, I made it clear that I'd only communicate with the candidate - not their parents. (FWIW, I'm a millennial myself)[/quote]
