Ask HN: Slop Recruiting Emails from Meta?

2•roxolotl•8mo ago
Has anyone else gotten AI slop recruiting emails from Meta? I received what’s clearly an unproofed email from a prompt like “Compare joining Meta to joining the Rebel Alliance.” Feels fake because it’s so bad but the email and author seem to checkout, though they could be faked of course. Here’s the first half:

I hope you're ready to embark on a journey that's out of this world! As a skilled product professional, you have the power to join the Rebel Alliance and help us bring balance to the Force.

The Mission:

Meta's products, such as Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, are like the Millennium Falcon - they're fast, agile, and always on the move. And just like Han Solo, they're primarily used by people around the globe, navigating through the galaxy of users and bringing people together.

But we need your help to take our mission to the next level. As a product professional at Meta, you'll have the opportunity to work on projects that have a global reach, just like the Rebel Alliance's quest to defeat the Empire. With your expertise, you'll be able to tap into a vast network of users across the galaxy, creating experiences that are as seamless as a lightsaber duel.
