Here's a job hunting mishap for fun reading before the holiday…
It’s one thing (though still obnoxious) to be a brash, backstabbing alpha male when you’re out on the town with business associates. It’s another for a job applicant to be so dimwitted as to put that same arrogant attitude into an e-mail and assume it’s not going to be forwarded around, and probably end up on the smartphone screen of the very people you’re insulting.
Thus the lesson being learned by one young college chap trying to secure post-graduation employment with the Charlotte-based firm of Bank of America.
In e-mails screengrabbed on Business Insider, the gent sends of an electronic epistle (e-pistle?) to a Bank of America Merrily Lynch (BAML) recruiter with whom he’d presumably discussed the refined art of beer pong earlier in the week.
