The Dream Job That Wasn't

Briefing

You're a strong engineer, so recruiters slide into your DMs. This one has a real-looking profile, a real-looking company, and a great offer. You'll read the conversation as it happens across LinkedIn and Telegram, then make one decision. Everything here is simulated — no real messages, no real code runs.

What to watch for

  • How fast the conversation is pushed off LinkedIn onto Telegram
  • What the very first 'task' actually asks you to do
  • Whether anything is designed to make you move quickly

Simulated environment · nothing here is real, nothing runs, nothing sends.
