My cousin a director at this company I was trying to get into. They sold me dreams about how they would pass my resume on to the hiring manager and they were cool with them and I was basically in there, however my app was rejected without an interview so either they don’t have the pull they claim or they never sent the resume.

It's very few jobs you can get like that now from what I've observed.

Where your cousin fukked up is managing your expectations and speaking to you 1 on 1.

That being said, you have to read the room. They're going to be looking to get your cousin out of the paint. He has to move with extreme caution because everyone who reports to him will see him as a diversity hire and will believe they can take his job.

It's harder for Black people to practice nepotism in those positions because we are under immense scrutiny. Hiring you isn't something that would just fly under the radar.

I hope things work out for you. Keep your head held high and don't give up.

It’s a majority black company with a black ceo.
