That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life! That's the kinda thing an idiot would have on his luggage!
Here's a crazy idea maybe you shouldn't require applicants to create an account just to apply for a job. Lord knows how many workday accounts I've created.
Agreed, but it's not the applicants' accounts that was compromised.
That's the password for the admin panel that lets you see every single application and all their conversations with the stupid hiring bot. An order of magnitude more silly.
Fuck workday.
I quit applying for jobs if they use workday
Unfortunately, no disclosure contacts were publicly available and we had to resort to emailing random people. The Paradox.ai security page just says that we do not have to worry about security!
Lol, reading that as someone who wants to disclose a vulnerability must be frustrating.
The website says "We worry about security, so you don't have to." (aka some corporate speak) and then links to the company's security@whatever email so this comment from the article author is in extremely bad faith.
then links to the company’s security@whatever email
It didn't on 2nd June so I'd say that's not the case.
Web pages change.
Glad there smarter than me, I would have stopped at 12345
I wonder what other logins they tried
Lmao they called it the Mchire
I’ve seen hiring ads referring to them as McJobs
If anyone wanted this information, they could just post a bogus job, and people will just send them the data.
Anyone still worried about AI taking over the world and killing all the humans?
