That was a message to the stock market. In reality I haven't heard from a Facebook recruiter in a month now.
- echelon 7y agoAs an anecdote, I got an email from a Facebook recruiter yesterday. They're still hiring, though I'm not sure at what rate and for how long.
- whateveracct 7y agoI've heard from at least 2 since the lockdown began, so anecdata all around :)
- RivieraKid 7y agoLying would be illegal...
- Infinitesimus 7y agoHeard from 2 recently so they're certainly still hiring and hiring fast
- edanm 7y agoNot sure why RivieraKid was getting downvoted - there's no "just a message to the stock market". Lying in this context would be illegal, and would open FB up to shareholders suing the company IMO.
- perl4ever 7y agoI'm not a securities lawyer, but I would assume that there is little deterrence for "sending a message to the stock market" with statements about hopes, plans, or predictions for the future. As long as there's nothing definitively false as of the moment you say it... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward-looking_statement https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward-looking_statement
