San Francisco AI初创公司LemonLime的CEO Jordan Zietz因在YC Startup School派对上提供纹上公司logo以换取面试机会的活动而陷入争议。1该活动吸引了7人参与纹身。1
Zietz最初在LinkedIn上为这一招聘创意辩护，声称"我们大胆、冒险、做前所未有的事"。1然而随后他在X平台发表公开道歉，承认"将个性化艺术庆祝变成公司噱头是判断力不当"。1Zietz承诺支付参与者的纹身去除服务费用。1
但对于活动的具体情况，各方陈述出现矛盾。参与者Dimple Amitha Garuadapuri在X上发文称"几乎所有人都纹了LemonLime logo纹身"，与Zietz关于参与者主动选择的说法不符。1LemonLime是Y Combinator毕业公司，曾获得50万美元投资。1
Jordan Zietz, CEO of San Francisco-based AI startup LemonLime, sparked controversy after offering job seekers the opportunity to get the company logo tattooed in exchange for immediate interview opportunities at a Y Combinator Startup School event 1. Seven participants took part in the tattoo activity 1.
Following backlash, Zietz posted an apology on X, characterizing the incident as a lapse in judgment and stating, "turning personalized artistic celebration into a corporate gimmick was poor judgment" 1. He pledged to cover the cost of tattoo removal services for participants 1. However, his account of events contradicted that of participant Dimple Amitha Garuadapuri, who posted on X that "nearly everyone got the LemonLime logo tattoo," suggesting broader participation than Zietz's framing implied 1.
In an earlier LinkedIn post, Zietz had framed the initiative positively, writing "we are bold, we take risks, we do things no one has done before" 1. LemonLime, a Y Combinator graduate company, has raised $500,000 in funding 1.
