How not to apply for a job

[hc5duke]

Someone I know was supposed to interview this guy (David the plagiarizer, not Nathan the blogger) today:

Needless to say, the company canceled the interview. Since the blog post went up, the guy shut down his personal and business sites, canceled his twitter account, and allegedly threatening the blogger with a lawsuit. I'd say he ruined his career but if this is what he has been doing for his portfolio, there couldn't have been much talent to waste.

The link seems to be broken now unfortunately.

The David guy appears to have tried to wipe out most proof of his existence on the web. Ahh, the joys of cached Google search hits.

Yep - He hasn't been able to clear Google's cache yet. Still scary the way this can happen.
