Lets say I have worked for an organization for a few
years and then decide to leaveon good terms for the most
part but you didn't feel that the management was fare so
you picked myself up and find a new job and
resigned. You weren't asked to leave nor did the
management suggest that.
Now you see that organization is posting the posting the
position you held on the internet.
I thought I would like to post a message on the list
stating that if anyone was going to apply for that
position they could give me a call or email off list and
I could give that person a heads up regarding what to
expect at the interview, possibly the people he/she would
meet and maybe the kind of questions that would be asked.
Would you consider this ethical?
If providing this kind of information to others were
illegal, LinkedIn would likely get closed down. If
unethical, it would have gotten some pretty bad press by now.
OTOH, since this deals with a specific company and
with hiring, I'd run it past our list moderator to let him
decide if it's on topic (and if there are any keywords
required in the Subject).
