Local company? Send it to the local news. They’ll jump all over a reference to end of days AI.
Local news will use ai to write the article
I mean, we use AI to write Lemmy comments, so I figure it’s all fair.
Doesn’t need to be AI. Just a simple filter to call out the offending information and what field it was in. Still crappy, and something AI would do, but there are cheaper ways to automate the enshittification of job applications.
“Nobody wants to work anymore”
why is your comment glowing golden for me?
Is it like a disgusting brown/yellow? I was having that all day yesterday but I don’t see it on the post you’re talking about.
It’s for recent comments
They should not censor the company name.
But then you might realize it’s fake.
What do you mean ‘Company Business Incorporated Pty Ltd.’ Isn’t a legitimate employer?
Birthday on LinkedIn is a bit outlandish as age discrimination laws are fairly standard. I think it is more likely that they called it their birthday on some immature post, which may mean that the applicant is a poor cultural fit.
Ignoring my first instinct, I tried to imagine some context to this, and if someones linkedin profile says he is in his 30s with a lot of experience, but somehow after applying, they got a cv of a 20 year old with little experience, it put them into a situation where the first impression based on this breaks the trust they try to build with an applicant.
It is probably still not wise to point out the age discrepancy, but i can see how I wouldn’t want to work with someone who I only know for 5 seconds but already confused me.
There is a chance, the letter was written by an AI, but equaly can be a corporate template.
If it was a typo, and the difference is only a couple days, tough luck, maybe you should remove the “attention to details” part from your cv. :D
The issue is the 4/20 (blaze it).
It also seems fake.

So, uh, what was on 4/20?
Hitler’s death.
Close. He died on 4/30, he was born on 4/20. But there were many deaths at Columbine High School on 4/20/1999.
My bad. Only good thing Hitler did though.
It’s a reference to smoking weed. Reread it with that in mind and it’ll be clear.
For possible non US people? https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/420
deleted by creator
In fairness for non-US this makes even less of an issue as my birthday is 20/4 and 4/20 as a date is meaningless.
I was about to mention how it originally started as a time of day but 4:20 is probably early morning for you too.
Well, I hope that this gets someone in shit.
I would spam them with even more “inappropriate” but equally plausible applications out of sheer pettiness and the vain hope that a real person would see it and realize that using AI to screen job applications is an awful idea.
My dude, that is not a company you want to be working for. On the bright side.
Going to be able to buy a lot of weed after the lawsuit.
Idk if birth dates are protected classes or statuses in most places.
Kind of like saying they won’t hire you because you’re a Scorpio?
Welcome to the United States. Federally speaking at least, there are very few protections for hiring/firing. You can be fired for your hair color, unless the hiring manager is as much of an idiot as he is an asshole and says “black people don’t have blonde hair” (happened in a Hooters case I remember reading). The company policy reads “right hair color for your skin tone”, and is actually normally enforceable in the US because it’s implying no “unnaturally dyed hair”. They hypothetically can turn away an Asian redhead with no legal ramifications so long as she dyed her hair that way.
So yeah, they can 100% not hire you because you’re a Scorpio. More realistically, you’d probably see someone who doesn’t hire Aries, Virgo, or Aquarius because the New York Post had an article claiming those three signs are more likely to get fired.
Glad that won’t happen to me. I was born on January 6th.
Now I’m imagining someone legitimately putting their Jan6 involvement on a resume.
Window Structural Integrity Tester (Jan 6th, 2021): Responsibilities included - unconventional team-building activities, conditioning, navigating unfamiliar territory, and breaking down barriers.
Nah, it’d probably be more like:
Security Field Tester (Jan 6, 2021): Part of a group that organized a large-scale “peaceful march” in order to thoroughly check security protocols for the Capitol building. Duties included attempts at theft to see if we’d be stopped, testing window durability by attempting to break them, engaging physically with security staff in riot gear to test security training, and shouting terroristic threats in order to see how secure government protocols were in the event of a riot at a governmental building.
It’s called Physical Pen Tester. Such a job actually exists.
That’s the same joke, but worse.
that’s unfortunate. sure looks like they could use some competency in the area applied-for.
Historical fun fact: this is why Hitler was rejected from art school in Vienna.
Fun fact for those downvoting that post: 4/20 was also Hitler’s birthday.
Fake news artists would NEVER reject weed
That’s because they’re using the wrong date format.
/s
ISO 8601 would probably still trigger the AI
ISO 8601 is love. ISO 8601 is life.
Does it work with omitting the year though?
This can’t be real. There are so many red flags this is fake. 1) Everything is censored. 2) GIS (Google image search) lookup only shows reddit and linkedin. The linkedin post is just as vague “learned a colleague received this!” 3) It’s too good to be true. it plays on current fears. 4) It’s just so dumb.
1 is in no way a red flag, don’t put other’s personally identifying information on the Internet.
Disagree. If this was true, terrible companies should be named and shamed.
-
Of course everything is censored, there is no reason to share personal info like that.
-
I don’t know what Geographical Information Systems have to do with this post, are you referring to a reverse image search like google or tineye or something? What were you expecting to find? The original email with all of the aforementioned personal info? Are you surprised content could be posted to Reddit before anywhere else?
-
Current fears are justified.
-
Poe’s Law tells me not to assume anything is satirical because there will always be people that stupid or greedy.
And yeah, it could be fake, 100%, but your arguments were really dumb.
GIS might be Google Image Search in this case, though I haven’t seen it abbreviated like that before.
That’s what it is.
-
- Companies usually don’t send out detailed rejection letters like this. They’re usually like “after reviewing your credentials we decided to go with another candidate” or something vague like that.
I fucking hate people like you.
“Everything on Reddit/Lemmy is fake and gay. Here’s my evidence.”
All evidence easily has an explanation, most of it laughably so.
What do idiots who claim everything is fake get out of it? To troll the OP? Or do you just want to spread your misery?
“Nobody was born on 4/20 except Hitler. We do not wish to hire Hitler at this time.”

Times they are a changin’
