    Yep. And I’m saying that when he gets better at it, he will call them, ask them to grab lunch, and openly say at the start of lunch “I’m buying because there’s this thing I might want to hire you for, and I want to talk about it during lunch”.

    I’ve head-hunted people over the course of five years, myself. But they knew it, because I bought them lunch at least once per year to talk about how I’m a fan of their work.

    This dude is likely to be disappointed because while he’s been thinking about job fit for 5 years, his ideal candidate hasn’t thought about him at all.

      You still haven’t figured out the story in the picture isn’t real? Nobody’s been interviewing anyone for five years.

        They’re talking about stalking someone on LinkedIn.

        Hi so over here we understand the concept of figurative speech. Would you like to come over here and stand on this side of the line, or are you going to be an idiot over there by yourself?
