Max LeibmanUnfortunately, the position you have applied for has been filled, but we will keep your resume and information on file so that if an opportunity opens up in the future, it can be released publicly in a data breach.

mastodonphan HAS MOVED@maxleibman It would make sense why I've been getting rejections left and fucking right for the past 6 months.

@maxleibman if you're within EU territory, demand deletion under GDPR. Also works with some US companies, or so I've heard 😉
Olivier Mengué@silhouette @maxleibman Unfortunately you have to remember every place where you sent applications. Even for centralized platforms:

@[email protected] I'm also worried about big data farms like GreenHouse that collect data from multiple customers (companies) outside EU and so are building profiles from diverse sources, over time. As their customers are the companies, the job seeker has no contract with GH, and so no way of asking directly for data access or deletion.

Funfact: In germany it was law that companies had to return your resume when the position has been filled. That came from the time where people applied via mail, the days before email.
When people started to send in their resumes via email, companies had no idea how to "return them" to comply to the law, so they printed the emails and sent the prints back to the people via mail. Took some time but the law was eventually changed. But those were wild times.
CosmicCactus@maxleibman Most of that info is on LinkedIn anyway.

Mark T. Tomczak@maxleibman I got a data-breach letter from a movie theater I worked at in high school, some decade or so after graduating college.
The nature of the breach?
Someone broke into the warehouse they stored their tax documents in and made off with W-2 filing data.
(Side-note: this is free inspiration for anyone running a Shadowrun or Cyberpunk game. See how your chooms deal with discovering the "valuable data" they're supposed to extract is in the form of a literal pallet of pressed dead trees. 😉 )
Face Thumb@maxleibman I apply for jobs via Seek (A website), then I get emails for third party recruiters saying "Thanks for creating an account with us" even though I never created an account with them, or even applied for a job through them specifically, they scraped the data from Seek (Probably with a payment and Seek's blessing). I swear a lot of Seek's "clients" have no jobs available or anything to do with recruiting, they are just scraping data.
