Completely unethical, and may come back to bite you.
Unethical because you are presenting yourself under false pretenses, taking interview slots from people who don't have jobs yet, and are possibly breaking the rules of your placement office.
It will come back to bite you in may ways. If your current employer finds out what you're doing, they may go back on your offer. (How would you like it if they kept interviewing people after they offered you the job?) If Google or Amazon find out, you may get blacklisted in the future. Classmates who see what you're up to will not trust you in the future.
Net - protect your integrity, as it takes years to make a reputation, and minutes to break it.
EDIT - fixed spelling, and add one more point - If you want to work at one of them in the future, get to know the HR reps, and keep contact with your classmates that are going there. Let them know what you're up to. They're the ones most likely to pull you through in the future. (And block it if they see you behaving poorly in the meantime)
- wavephorm 15y agoCompletely unethical Wrong. Unless the company is paying him a retainer he is unemployed and therefore can entertain offers.
- mathattack 15y agoWavephorm, I respectfully disagree. He may legally entertain other offers, but that doesn't make it ethical. If it was ethical, and wouldn't cause residual harm to his reputation, there would be no issue telling the world he was doing it.
