It's both funny and cringey. Is it unprofessional and a dick thing to do? Yes. It's also hilariously absurd.
- zbuf 5y agoIs it even hilarious? Hasn't everyone who's used a recruiter joked, at some point, about them finding their old job?
- rsynnott 5y agoI've had a recruiter try to get me to interview from a job I'd just given notice on (before my notice period was even up!) However, I didn't actually _take the interview_; that's what makes this case funny.
- lultimouomo 5y agoWhen it happens, you usually say "how funny would it have been if I had interviewed again with them?" Today we found out, it would have indeed been hilarious. (But yes, a dick move)
- l30n4da5 5y agoGot the same opinion about it. Unprofessional? Yes. Hilarious? Also yes.
- emsy 5y agoEvery time I see something like this, the onus of being professional lies solely on the employee. I just don’t care anymore. I’ve met enough “unprofessional” people that were the most productive in their team to know that unprofessional is used as “stepped out of line” these days.
- bena 5y ago"Unprofessional" is business speak for "I don't like you personally, but can't find any technical fault with you." Wearing shorts is "unprofessional". Why? I don't know. I sling code, pants aren't helping or hindering with that. I grabbed shorts this morning, let's not make it complicated.
