Recently, a company from Guangzhou (China) published a vacancy for the position of an administrative worker, which caused heated discussion in the Internet space. In addition to standard criteria, such as work experience and proficiency in office software, the advertisement contained an unexpected condition: candidates born in the year of the dog according to the Chinese calendar were not required to apply, Mail.ru reports.
The demand sparked a wave of criticism on Chinese social media, with many users accusing the employer of discrimination. The company representative tried to explain the situation, citing the beliefs of the head of the company. According to him, the head of the company, born in the year of the dragon, believes that it is difficult for him to find a common language with people whose sign is the dog.
One online commentator wryly noted: “I always thought it was hard to find a good job after 35, but I didn’t expect my zodiac sign to be a problem”.
