robots
I have felt like the professionalism has been lacking from an employer's perspective in IT for many years now, I am trying to fight to preserve and keep the notion that I and fellow workers in this field are indeed professionals not some task robot. If the application and interview process becomes too robotic, in my opinion that is indicative of the way the company will think of it's employees and lack of respect for professionals, I will pass. That may be good for hourly, line workers, etc but not a good way to get the best of the best of the professionals out there.
