UPDATE: Executive directors accidentally send job candidate private meeting video discussing her job interview: 'Do I just pretend I didn't see the recap?'

Quick — what would you do if you interviewed somewhere, only to be sent the conversation from an internal meeting regarding your own interview? It's a wild scenario, and one you're not likely to be in… unless you're this person, who had exactly that happen to them following their most recent job interview. 

First, this person interviewed, and was subsequently emailed a recap of said interview. That was not supposed to go to them, however! But it gets worse — that was just a recap of a full video meeting all about their interview performance. 

Now look, this is kind of a blessing in disguise, as some glass-half-full types in the comments section noted. For the optimists out there, getting brutally honest, utterly candid feedback about your own job interview performance is the kind of thing you'd have to pay thousands for in the real world. This person got it for free! On the other hand, they didn't exactly ask for that, and now they may feel even more self-conscious about doing future job interviews. 

At first, some commenters wondered if this was an elaborate ploy to test this person's honesty. Would they tell the hiring manager what happened, or ignore it? But it soon became clear that that was not the case at all… 

Check it all out down below! Then, read about this 25-year-old construction worker who cost her company $20,000 after her 34-year-old boss totally refused to listen to her: "I'm telling him no… I was perfectly within my right to do so."
