A company's top executive has sparked controversy with a LinkedIn message expressing sorrow over losing a "dear friend and team member," followed by a call for applications to fill the vacant position in the same post.
Dave, the company's President, described the deceased employee, Darla, as a dedicated project manager and customer service representative. Expressing sorrow over her loss, Dave noted that Darla would be greatly missed by her colleagues. He then solicited applications to replace Darla, specifying that ideal candidates should have experience in the mail production industry, particularly in customer service for a mail or print service provider. He enticed potential applicants by describing the company as "the best place to work in the mailing industry."
