I assume Greenhouse is extracting your own details from a PDF or Linkedin and asking you to fill in details. Edit: and I guess I'd find it ironic too. The price of poetic license is two bucks and an awkward screenshot. Edit 2: Looks like it does show up as a question for internship roles. Which a) makes sense, b) probably isn't your alma mater until sometime after the internship so I'll wiggle out on a technicality and c) includes mine so I'm OK with the coverage.

I didn't upload a resume or connect with LinkedIn (and I'm not from Berkeley anyway). Check this one, which isn't an internship role: https://boards.greenhouse.io/pivotalsoftware/jobs/927731#.Wku08FWnGpc https://boards.greenhouse.io/pivotalsoftware/jobs/927731#.Wk.... It's on a few other forms from what I've seen, but probably not all of them. Also, the problem does not lie with the question, but the fact that the only two options available as a response are "Berkeley" and "Not Berkeley" by virtue of the single checkbox (edit: Upon further inspection, the form requires a selection in this field for submission, so the only acceptable answer is, in fact, "Berkeley").

  Hilariously enough, that's the job I started with in 2014. I apologise for subtly blaming you for it. I get defensive easily, it's one of my more charming qualities, representing most of the times that I wind up looking like an idiot. But you've done us a favour here, I'm grateful. If you're in NYC I'll buy you a beer or coffee.

    Ha, it's cool. Nowhere near NYC, I'm afraid, but I'll keep that in mind if I ever manage to get an on-site there.
