In Episode 17 of The Bad Hire, Ken, Nathan, and Emma are back to break down some of the wildest real hiring stories submitted by listeners—including a literacy tutor who showed up drunk, a boyfriend who caused total chaos in the lobby, and a moonlighting CTO making $360K… while working full-time for Goldman Sachs. You’ll hear: – A sweet volunteer who brought tea… that wasn’t tea – A boyfriend who peed in the hedges during her interview – A candidate who completely changed personas after getting hired – A CTO hired by investor demand… who never showed up again – And a candidate who tried to get the recruiter fired—for a calendar error 💸 Want to win $10,000?
