Is this spam? They do not name the company or anyone involved. They mention a Reddit post, but don’t link to it.
Is it just me or does this article scream AI written? Specifically the line “ This decision emphasizes the seriousness of the error and its impact on the hiring process.” Like, no human would deem it necessary to repeat this information like this.
It’s also published in the India Times. My experience in working with colleagues from India (including many years pre-LLM mania), many write in a tone similar to this. I’m not sayings it’s decidedly not AI-generated but it’s hard to be confident.
Also, title: "Entire HR team terminated".
First paragraph: "This led to the firing of half the HR department."
Either this error is due to clickbait purposes, or AI
It felt like a middle school essay. I'm unfamiliar with India times though, maybe it's a weird translation.
