    I reported this post for harassment. LinkedIn said “nope this is fine”:

    This is pretty fucking egregious. I don’t care if the candidate was wildly unprofessional or not, you don’t fucking drop names like this publicly.

    If I was that candidate I’d be calling lawyers right about now.

    Also, if you reported it, they don’t let you see it afterwards, even if they refuse to take it down. So it may look like they’ve taken action when all they’ve done is make it sorta look like they did, just to you.

      Well, it’s hard to call it libel, because they hardly made any actual claims. I was waiting to hear about the “unprofessional behavior”, but they seem to have forgotten that part?

      The only unprofessional behavior seems to be the post itself. If you’re going to make allegations, make actual allegations or don’t say anything.

      You didn’t think LinkedIn was doing anything wrong when they asked people to put up pictures of themselves? You didn’t catch on that LinkedIn is the biggest facilitator of workplace discrimination?

    Anybody else feel extra bothered by his use of “professional calibration” like workers are just some machine?

      “CEO”

      On his companies website his email is a Gmail account and he couldn’t even get his own name as the email address.

        It ain’t really doxxing though. I personally know 3 people with name Yash Gupta. There are soooooo many people out here man. And worse of all, these CEOs will get away with it because people are ready to code for 20k Indian rupees, (around 250 dollars) a month. It’s crazy out here.

          Sorry you got downvoted for saying an objective truth. Was still sucky the CEO dork linked to his profile, though.

            I didn’t know that. And I wasn’t supporting the doxxing. I want assert how absurd the condition is here out here. If anybody interpreted it differently, I am sorry.

              Maaaaan don’t apologize for being downvoted. Switch to an instance that doesn’t even let you see downvotes.

          He gave his name, job title, and the company he works for. That seems like enough to be doxxing.

          Bruh. They @'d his place of employment. They’re trying to get him fired and blacklisted.

            This. This is the real issue here. I doubt his current (I assume - this could also be an old screenshot) employer is going to mind too much his “money-driven mindset” and all that other stuff (I mean - they do know him far longer than Dr. Kashyap does), but they are going to be very interested in the very fact that he was interviewing with another company.

    I can’t tell if Yash was the interviewer or interviewee.

    The CEO’s title doesn’t match the company mentioned.

    Unprofessionalism is maybe the least significant critique you could receive. In fact it’s a good thing, assuming you’re actually doing your job reliably and everybody is, like, safe around you. That’s all that matters.

    I like how they say it’s a mutual endeavor and yet they obviously wasted this applicant’s time.

    Good on Gupta for ghosting them.

    He might have wanted to run this by an HR person before posting. Asshat is definitely getting sued for this.
