TIFU signing into a virtual job interview. I was using my personal laptop that I don’t use that often and joined the zoom via a link in the meeting details. I entered the meeting and then my heart dropped. Since I signed on with that link, the place where you enter your name along with the meeting ID never popped up. It went with the name I had used for my last zoom session, which happened to be “bitch”.
I panicked and signed out immediately and typed my actual name. I was a couple of minutes early and did not see anyone in the meeting yet, so I figured I was in the clear. Then I checked my phone and I had a text from the recruiter I had been working with.
Her: “Hurry up and change your zoom name it says bitch!”
Oh god. Now I’m sweating and the interview is starting. The entire time I’m wondering if the interviewer saw my original sign in.
Once it was over I texted the recruiter and apologized profusely. She let me know we caught it before the hiring manager saw and she said she got a good laugh out of it.
Be careful out there zoomers!!
TL;DR the last time I used zoom I put in “bitch” as my name and that was used when I auto joined a zoom interview via the meeting link
