‘Unwoke’ Job Platform Gets Mocked & Hacked To Display Bizarre Job Opportunities

Unwoke.hr calls itself a “job board for conservatives, libertarians and free thinkers.” The website shuns “wokeness” and activism, while encouraging managers to “watch your work competition implode” by hiring staff from the site.
This week, the job recruitment site was hacked and trolled with anti-racism memes, images and bizarre job listings, including “Farty Fart” and “Professional F**k Up.”
It was rather easy for visitors to take over the website as it doesn’t verify CVs or listings before being posted. So, predictably, many went on to post ridiculous job opportunities with fake profiles.
The company went on Twitter to acknowledge the website takeover, and within 30 minutes, someone had hacked the site to display a crossed-out swastika and a video game meme known as ‘Big Chungus’.
The platform became unusable for a moment due to the hack. However, it has now returned to normal with ordinary openings.
Check out some of the ridiculous job listings posted during the takeover below.
