A StarHub job posting on LinkedIn that lacked any job description or qualifications was created in error, the telco told Stomp, after netizens expressed confusion and amusement online.
The executive-level role, reposted at around 6pm on Nov 3, displayed an automated message instructing applicants to “Please copy from Word Pad instead of Word Document” instead of providing information about the position or required qualifications.
The post, marked “Promoted by hirer,” showed that over 100 people had clicked “Apply.”
StarHub clarifies the executive role listing was not meant for public view
A StarHub spokesperson said the post was made during a system test and “was not intended for external publication, nor does it reflect our approach to recruitment or employer branding”.
