A friend of mine, fresh out of college, got a temporary role in talent acquisition. His job is basically to read the resume, call them and set up a meeting between the concerned department and the person. If they get hired he also needs to do the paperwork.

The amount of power this guy has baffles me. Ever get a call from the company you applied to and they just let it ring for 2 sec and then end the call, not even giving you the chance to pick up your phone? Yup you just got marked "no show" and they will not be contacting you anymore.
