Freund made her responsible for having no interview questions to help a connection, but she chose professional integrity about personal favors »Twistedsifter

At the workplace, boundaries between ethical behavior and friendly favors can be quickly tangled.

When a specialist refused to lick interview questions to help a friend's connection, her friend accepted her integrity as a betrayal.

Read on for the whole story.

I (F29) work with my friend James (M40) on a technology company.

He referred his friend from an earlier job that he sees as a sister (F45) to work in our company.

His friend had gone through the first round of the interviews without a follower.

Before the interview there is a mathematical test that she has questions about and I answered it happily.

It passed the math test and continued to the zoom interview.

Now it was just that your interview was with me and my boss.

But then James crossed the border.

The interview was on Wednesday and my friend James calls me on Tuesday to ask the questions.

In a casual way I answer: “You know that I cannot give them” what he accepts and we continue.

This time the interview is not going so well.

The interview takes place on Wednesday and it is not doing well.

The interview questions are fundamental, e.g. For example: How do you prioritize your workload? What is the most innovative that you did at work? Etc.

Since she does not cut it off well, she does not go to the next stage.

Now her friend shows her finger on her.

Now my girlfriend is angry with me because I haven't helped her to prepare for the interview?

He thinks because she is a sister for him, should I have read between the lines that she needed and helped more?

But she believes that she only kept things fair.

In my view, the fact that I primarily led the interview exceeded an ethical line, and I was not comfortable to do more.

If it was so important for him that I would help her, should he have said it?

I said all of this with him, but he is still in his way I dropped the ball, and I was selfish by not helping her.

But I'm not friends with this person. We met socially 4-5 times.

Aita?

It turns out that they still cannot win from some people, even if they follow the rules.

Redditors weigh their thoughts.

This user believes that their instincts were exactly right with this.

Sometimes they only have to look for their own interests, especially when it comes to their own job security.

According to this user, ethics of it was already very shaky.

Whether she has a connection or not, she should still be able to show that she could effectively do the job.

After all, her career is also at stake.
