Any employer that frickin' texts me to set up an interview won't get an interview. I doubt that happens though lol

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 43 points 6 months ago

I’d rather they text me than call me, but you’d think they’d explain who they are when reaching out for the first time.

Yeah, there was one time a recruiter just texted me "Is this xxxx ?". If you're gonna cold call/text, introduce yourself immediately on your first message.

I read it as they originally called, then person replies “who diiiiiis” via text as they didn’t answer the call.

It’s fake af anyway so I don’t know why I bothered even responding with some reasoning

It's fake but fun to think about the what if. I sent some awkward ass pictures accidentally

It happens a lot by sketchy companies.

I mean, it's fine if I missed their mail or whatever, but it sure would be unusual. Better than calling tho. I hate it when they do that.

BUH. "Potential interview". Bullet dodged.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

The potential means that before he sent the image and the who dis, the interview was gonna happen.

The potential is now gone.

An interview for what? Becoming a side dish at your holiday buffet? Another worker to be gobbled up by the corporate flesh eating and soul destroying machinery of capitalism? Look at me being a Marxist all of a sudden....
