The boss told him to work after 18pm. The colleague did a terrible job on that project, forcing everyone to completely revise it. That other colleague is talking too loudly on the phone.

For reasons, which may be serious or more trivial, people get nervous at work every day, but while once they simply complained to friends and family, today, according to experts, "rage applying" is widespread.

It is used to indicate when disgruntled workers begin to fire off applications, which is very easy today, thanks to advances in technology.

Many of these are just people who want to blow off steam, they don't really want to change jobs.

But the phenomenon has become a problem for people who work in HR. According to a survey, two-thirds of American professionals admitted to having done so at least once in the last 12 months.

To limit the amount of “unweighted applications,” many companies are using software to recognize certain keywords or results that are essential for a specific role. This allows us to identify many of the applications sent in anger.

But, in the end, human intervention is necessary to discover false candidates.

You can send questions in advance of an interview, someone suggests. Even just returning a response shows real interest.

HR should also request prior confirmation for job interviews, perhaps a few hours before the scheduled appointment. Many of these candidates will not show up for an interview, so testing the waters to confirm attendance can be helpful. It requires a little work, but it saves some later.

And, above all, it can also be an opportunity to raise awareness of the company.

Who knows, the candidate could always contact the company again at a later time, perhaps after having seriously and solidly considered the opportunity.
