Are Bribes and Favors Hurting How Companies Hire People | Healthcare, Pharma

Lately, there have been a lot of reports from job seekers and professionals saying something bad is happening in how companies hire people. It seems that instead of choosing the best and most talented candidates, some HR (Human Resources) teams are making decisions based on bribes or favors. This means that people who may not have the right skills are getting hired just because they paid the HR person or have special connections. This unfair practice is causing companies to suffer in the long run.

Many people talk about something called “reference hiring,” which now often means that someone gets a job because they know the right people or give money to the hiring team. It’s no longer just about talent and hard work. For example, one student might perform really well in interviews, answering all the questions perfectly, but another person who bribes HR might get the job without even passing the interview.

This kind of behavior is a big problem. When HR teams choose the wrong people, companies lose out on talented workers who could help the business succeed. As a result, the quality of work suffers, projects go wrong, and businesses lose money. People are also losing trust in how companies hire new employees because it feels like it’s no longer fair.

Despite these issues, not many people are talking about it publicly. Some are scared to speak up because they fear losing their chance at future jobs. At the same time, some companies ignore the problem as long as their short-term goals are met, which only makes things worse.

For companies to do well, they need to hire the right people based on skills, not money or connections. If businesses don’t fix this problem, they’ll keep losing money, trust, and talented workers. It’s time for companies to clean up their hiring processes and make sure that everyone has a fair shot at getting a job based on their skills and hard work, not bribes or favors.

  1. Not only this, but reference hiring also destroys friendships to an extent that the damage is irreparable. I’ve seen it happen in front of my eyes. A M. Pharm. passing out guy, for nom de plume we keep it as A, learns about an in-campus hiring opportunity with only 5 vacancies for his job role. He calls his friend working at the same location & tells him the names of his other friends B, C, D & E. He makes that friend of his a reference. Of B, C, D & E, B was his former year mate during B. Pharm. course. With that friend’s reference all 5 of them get the job at that company, in which interview I also sat. Well & good, the position was a bit on the lower side. However, there was another of A’s friends, let’s take him as F. A, B, F did their B. Pharm. together, in fact the friend who was A’s reference was a more closer friend of F than A. However, A didn’t take his name, and he came to realise the fact when he called that friend of his. F was telling me how he & that friend “felt betrayed” by A. Though A will get his desserts; it is never a good idea to use your friend as reference coz now he has all the bragging & bullying rights on all 5. My tip is, if you want reference get yourself referred from the professor you did your research project with. Your professor is too noble to act up against you. Otherwise, just get jobs from job portals.
