I’ve been approved at last.
What was once a resume is now an Electronic Psychometric Record (EPR) - and mine was filed on the neurologist’s network for two weeks which seemed like a long time. I was fretting because I'd applied for a desirable job and the firm asked that my EPR be submitted to their Office of Human Metrics asap. I signed a bunch of privacy forms to keep my EPR from being forwarded to a neuropharmacologist; a government mandate beginning last year, 2024. Every employer with a benefits management firm requires you to have this big-pharma relationship. Some law.
So, Doctor Phillips approved everything he’d tested about my brain and the scores received back from the university psychometrics lab – the metrics which I cannot for the life of me understand - were good. In fact, he said I benchmarked above the standard US hiring assessment scores produced in 2020 as a college freshman. Even then, these tests were weird as hell.
Dr. Phillips is an empathetic person, about 45 years old. Here in year 2025 the role of “admin” doesn’t exist in any neurology office. No, he’s staffed with organizational data psychologists, a few genetic counselors and one fine “employment customer care” department. They receive and analyze incoming resumes prior to actual neuro-evaluations. The resume then translates to the EPR, however, it is structured for Office of Human Metrics staff or, workforce psychologists. All my background data is harvested by artificial intel apps. What’s weird about all this is that my parents were disallowed from seeing my EPR, even though they approved the required exams for Dr. Phillips. Sure, the Office of Human Metrics get my results but not my parents? That is due to a powerful lobbying effort that took place up on the Hill in 2020. Some law.
I’ll let you know how this employer views my EPR. Dr. Phillips may have taken too long. By law, because there’s private bio-data, they have to return my record within 30 days. I'll log in again to their secure cloud, agree with a 25-page user policy, see some pharma ads and then retrieve my E.psychometric record.
My parents are always telling me about the way people used to get hired and then stay with a good company. Weird.
