So long as they never mention why they are a former Google employee. Instead of a current one.

- b112 3y agoThis is accurate. HR doesn't want protesters on staff, and HR often googles candidates, checks social media, etc. They may find sympathy at some businesses, but the larger the company, likely the less of that.

- camdenreslink 3y agoI think it really depends on the company. There are a lot of companies out there with a wide range of values. Some might even consider this a quality that they want in a candidate (it will certainly eliminate them from consideration for some companies though).
- reactordev 3y agoThat’s true! Some might even be more inclined to hire you based on your stance on the matter and that you protested. Good point. Just saying it’s not the best light to show why you were let go. I stick to the canned “We were over-resourced and so there were layoffs” is an easy blanket statement.
- userbinator 3y agoI doubt the majority of companies will consider it desirable even if they happen to be in political agreement with you --- because people's beliefs change over time.
