They purport to be from an AI used by E*Trade in Alpharetta for hiring presumably for initial screening. They mention my “profile” as the reason for reaching out to me. It gives links for
<a href="http://chatwithwendy.com" target="_blank">chatwithwendy.com</a>.<br>

Since I’ve never put my work email address on any job site (other than subscription to ale jobs) I’m suspicious of what “profile” it would have found and have never clicked on the links.<o:p></o:p></p>

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
