I’m not job seeking but someone emailed to offer an allegedly lucrative side gig working with some unspecified top AI lab to help them train their coding models. I thought what the hell. Uploaded CV, was immediately thrown into an AI interview (and asking for camera access). Quickly closed the browser tab and blackholed that company’s email domain. Hands down the most disrespectful thing I’ve faced in my career.


Off topic, but what is your process for blocking the entire domain in email? I want to start doing something similar.


Can't you do this with most email filtering systems with a rule similar to `.*@example.com` -> trash/bin?
