Interviewer collecting information about organisations to head hunt

Hey Pankaj,
It happens but not to this extent.
They faked a position and interviewed you to get all the other contacts to fill open vacancies they had.
thats y u should be very cautious sometimes.

Hi guys , it is good hr case. To exel our organization hr dept may play politics
and head huntig but hurting one emplyee defifitely damage our reputation.

Sometimes they even try to get your clients contact details so that they can have a tie up with them.
You should not reveal all this information with them, just say its confidential.
You are not supposed to reveal companies information.
Anyways its a lesson for all of us.
I can picturise how it would have happened.
headhunters got different ways to get the references.
was it a mid sized company or big ?

Dear Mr. Pankaj,
Any employee in the status of the current role, apply for the job[s] other than its own. Discloses the Current Companies Procedure and policies along with the data concern to its current employer, attracts the departmental inquiry, since the concern related points are mentioned in the appointment letter itself.
Here my purpose is not make em brass or to bother you, but want to make the aware of the facts that can give the flavor. As you have mentioned that you have disclose the certain information to the headhunters, that were the things can make your company to take the legal action against you.

This is another way of recuritment. recuriters please make note of it and use it.
Dear take it in a postive way.

Hi
Guys many corporate like to use the term 'FOCUSSED LATERAL HIRING" it is perfectly done and every one is involved. You can say it is un ethical but then in this market of talent shortage people resort to such techniques.
I think one must be very careful during interviews because you never know when you are being taken for a ride, we must keep some cards close to our chest and not be over enthused for the job specially if we appear for an interview in an orgn from the same industry where we are employed now.
But it is safer not to give your peer's numbers and also not disclose all info of your current orgn it shows that you are ethical too. We do stand the risk of loosing the offer, but then there is always something better waiting

Dear Pankaj,
I understand your reservation to share the name of Co. But it is scope to teach a lesson to the company too. It is not the same world where only interviewee are to suffer, let the company defend its unethical practices. For all these malpractices we don't need our best brains from IIM, IITs in the industry after heavy use of public money. After all everything is fair in love and war.
Let the CEO's taste the chin-music.
And never loose heart.

Hi,
You need not feel so bad on this issue as I'm sure you wouldn't have given the no's of all those people who joined the company...may be the HR executive fm your company who joined them would have done the job. Any way as someone mentioned everything is fair..there remains no lines drawn as far as politics is concerned.Moreover if you get a better offer will you not switch job?If a company has sound people's management system in place,if a company considers the welfare of its human resource of paramount importance then a higher pay packet doesn't often lure them away from the company.Either you have such systems in place or be prepared to face such problems of 'brain drain'.
The moral is to be aware of your boundaries while attending interviews.Some companies ask for classified info during interviews..if you refuse to divulge such info upfront in a dignified manner,they may actually admire your integrity and offer you a better position. But if you tell them all just to impress them...you will definitely be given a bye..coz they dont want you to do the same with them..hope you are getting my point.
Regards.
