Years ago I had an interview with GoFundMe and as part of the interview process they wanted me to create a campaign and share it with family and friends. Then they asked for feedback on their website. I told them how disgusting that was to ask of me (I didn’t do it) and never heard back.
That reminds me of an interview I did. It was a partial graphic design/videographer sort of job (my focus is in design). I was looking to break into the field, it was entry level. But the guy interviewing didn’t want to fund or provide any kind of equipment like cameras. He suggested to me that I could crowdfund to get equipment so I could work for him. Seriously, lol. It was entry level pay too. Anyway, I was pretty quick to tell him I wasn’t at all okay with my social circles and family funding things necessary for a new job.
