Recruiter's scathing LinkedIn rejection shamed online

[ckms]

Has anyone seen this? A contractor asked an agent who approached him for a role where it was based. The agent told him that a dozen other candidates were asking about the scope of the contract not where the nearest train station was and abruptly dismissed him out of hand. It's gone viral on LinkedIn and Twitter. Any thoughts?

Bout as exciting as a wet flannel.

Seems a reasonable question, social media is a wonderful thing for things like this, I imagine the pimp is an arrogant arse who won't GAS though, his bosses might.

Whereas that is true PurpleGorilla, I am the candidate referred to in the article

Doesn't make it any more interesting though.

I have seen it, doesn't paint the pimp in a good light, but to be honest to oxygen stealers there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Another similar one going round is someone aghast that a candidate needs to speak to his partner about taking a job offer

In case you hadn't seen it...
