I find it funny how some of the college students on here are huge trolls or just douchebags, yet, they also post enough info to be able to easily know who they are. Would you hire them if you saw their name come across a stack of resumes?
I see how one could say, "at least they have a personality", though on the flip-side, it could be seen as very immature.

I don't think there are many trolls on this forum
swagon and blastoise are insta-hires. blumie gets a first round for sure
YES
Please make a WSO troll ranking for my entertainment.
Brady also an insta-hire, busting his chops on HBS on a daily basis would be too much fun
as long as im under blastoise i'll be happy
You want to be under blastoise?
i'd hire mudkipz/blastoise.
I honestly think the odds of finding someone who read what you wrote, is in a position to hire people, and able to remember enough to connect the pieces to figure out your true identity is pretty slim. Plus, even if all those things did happen, there's a chance the troll posts were funny, in which case that'd improve your odds.
I think the OP means hypothetically lol...
That said, I vote for blumie
if i knew who you were i would not hire you
Give him a fair interview and direct it accordingly to evaluate whether he has the actual setbacks that his trolling suggests. Make your decision based on that.
