The process is weeding out everyone who feels awkward about self-promotion or being pushy, which is a shame since that also weeds out a lot of fantastic candidates. I'm sure upper-level management doesn't care, but in the trenches I much rather have people who are experts at their work or are smart and can get the work done than outgoing business-speakers who like to be seen and heard.

But that can't be changed. We have to adapt and learn to be at least a little pushy and get out of our comfort zones.
