I would suggest a new term: Employ-unable.
Many if not most firms are unable to identify intelligent, motivated people, outside of the typical CV pedigree of Ivy Leagues and corporate brands.
As a result, they have created a cargo cult recruiting process that promises, in a few easy steps, to tell them the essence of the applicant's very being, and to accurately predict their future performance within the organization.
A child knows that this is impossible, but the need for control and risk minimization means firms force themselves to believe in it.
That is why the entire job seeking and interview process has degenerated into a tragedy and a farce.
In Europe and North America, there are tens if not hundreds of millions of people unemployed because businesses are not able to employ them; they lack the competence to recruit well.
