A Response to a Facebook Recruiter
- rvz 7y agoThis is a very unnecessary and long winded answer rejecting a position towards a Facebook recruiter. Going as far as throwing in political differences or statements puts you at risk in applying at other places if employers search up your Twitter account (Especially as this guy is a Googler). I won't be surprised if this tweet gets deleted soon. One sentence saying "No, I'm not interested" would have just been enough.
- seapunk 7y agoThis answer is undoubtedly long but interesting on the fact that it represents a state of mind of the industry. Also I don't think that being against Facebook is an argument for not being recruited by other companies in the future. If even people working for giants have decided to take a stand, it may be interesting for companies to focus on ethics to attract talent.
- kerpowski 7y agoNice rant considering he works for Google and is posting it on Twitter. Twitter and YouTube refused to pull the same ads as he's complaining about with FB: https://techcrunch.com/2019/10/13/ban-facebook-campaign-ads/ https://techcrunch.com/2019/10/13/ban-facebook-campaign-ads/
- underwater 7y agoThe fact that he's happily employed at Google is ironic. Google will happily put their grubby hands on whatever personal data they can find. And they have worked incredibly hard at making themselves the middle-man that stands between people and the world's information.
