(KGTV) — A story floating around claims the CEO of an AI startup asked people to permanently tattoo themselves in exchange for a job interview. Jordan Zietz offered an instant interview to anyone willing to permanently ink the logo for his company LemonLime on their body. Not surprisingly, the stunt didn't go over well, with many accusing the startup of exploiting people desperate to land a job. After the backlash, Zeitz posted a lengthy apology and pledged LemonLime would cover the cost of laser tattoo removal. The company told Inc. Magazine all 7 participants remain in the interview process.
