I turned down a phone screen at Facebook.
About a week later, a tech recruiter called and asked me if there was any sort of company I wouldn't work at. I said, yeah, I wouldn't want to work in any social media company. He challenged me by pointing out that the money and prestige has to be tempting, right?
I told them Facebook contacted me the week before and I declined.
The hem and haw, followed by 'uhhh.... well" and silence was revealing.
To be fair, I have zero chance of getting into Facebook, especially for what they contacted me for.
