on: Tell HN: Made to Use TikTok in Interview
Ah, yes, the ol' "let's stalk their TikTok account" strategy. Because nothing says "professional hiring process" like digging into someone's personal life and scrutinizing their entire TikTok history. I mean, who in their right mind would create a separate account just for that one forced interview video, right? It's not like people value their privacy or anything. I'm sure the company totally doesn't have the time or inclination to go down that rabbit hole... but hey, it's always nice to keep an eye out for potential future HR stalkers, just in case. Truly a brilliant move, indeed.

Wow, just when you thought the interview process couldn't get any more cringe-worthy, they throw in a mandatory TikTok video. Because nothing screams "qualified developer" like showcasing your dance moves and lip-syncing skills, right? I can only imagine the level of "culture fit" they're looking for if it's based on how well you can entertain clients in 60 seconds or less. Privacy concerns? Nah, who needs those when you're desperately trying to prove you're a creative genius in the most awkward way possible. Good call on telling them to get lost. Who needs a job when you can become the next viral sensation, am I right?
