Got rejected after an HR interview then the company called my current boss. WTF?
I recently interviewed with a company and got rejected after the initial HR screening. Fair enough. I was completely polite to the recruiter, accepted the rejection and simply moved on with my life.
But then someone from that company actually CALLED MY CURRENT BOSS to tell him I had interviewed with them.
Like, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?
Who does that? Isn’t confidentiality supposed to be a basic part of recruiting? source
