I had a job interview and the guy who interviewed me seemed okay. But now he keeps messaging me and asking me out. Do you think I should go along with it to help get the job or just forget it? The company hasn’t replied yet anyway.

    I hope you are kidding. Go along with harassment before you even get a foot in the door? Why would you even want to work somewhere that a potential... boss is already harassing you? Keep looking for another job and I would report him to his supervisor.  more

  • Why am i the only one thinking about this from a pure perspective rather than what everyone has been saying here?.. He might genuinely like her and... not doing that for the Job sake.  more

  • What kills me is you already know the answer and just looking for reassurance. At the end of the day you don’t have the job but possibly a strong... legal case! Good luck! more

  • Integrity, Ethics, Self Esteem, come to mind....(no disrespect intended)

  • Send the inapporpriate texts to the company manager/owner etc. Have his behind flagged and fired! If you think dating this jerk is the answer, I... simply don't know what to say. more

  • Will it get your promoted is the real question

  • Trust your inner voice.You know this is inappropriate so no.

  • At one point, this used to be a custom to go out to dinner to land a job. Have y'all never conducted business over dinner? It's not rocket science to... establish boundaries & expectations or just simply putting someone in their place. Y'all make everything so dramatic for no reason.  more

  • The question should be whether or not you actually are interested in the person; not whether they can get you the job. If you are dishonest about your... feelings to get you the job, you are the problem, not them. more

  • Sound like manipulation in a vulnerable situation and position. I’d suggest you stay away from that man and do not go out with him. Call the company... and ask for your results from your interview. If they take too long to respond move on. Find a different company to interview for. This will avoid a possible sexual harassment case in the future. You are smart and intelligent believe your skills qualify you for the position not a random date from a man whose harassing interviewees.  more

  • No i wouldnt

  • I would wait to go out with him until you hear about the job, only if you would’ve gone out with him if you met him organically. There’s power... dynamics at play and if you were to go out with him and get the job, I could see him leveraging that to be in a relationship with you. more

  • What twanna said. Literally i was gonna type exactly that

  • Contact HR and let them know you are withdrawing from the interview process and tell them because of the interviewers unprofessional & inappropriate... behavior.  more

  • He wants sex for the job.

  • I agree with Twanna you ought to report him to HR. This is not acceptable and if the company allows this, not somewhere you ought to seek employment.

  • You should report him to Human Resources. No job is worth you submitting yourself for favors.

  • You should keep it professional. He is not being professional. When you get the job make sure you gather have all documentation texts just in case... you get fire, you can report him to HR. You can actually report him to HR and you may get the job.  more
