(JEWISH GROUP) Cornell student turns down interview, saying 'not interested in working for a Jew'

A Cornell University student turned down a job interview with a New York company because he found out it is owned by Jews.

In response to New York City startup VryfID contacting him after he applied for a summer internship, Austin Franco wrote back, “Not interested in working for a Jew,” the New York Post reported on Saturday.

Franco, who reportedly studies industrial and labor relations, followed up with a typo-ridden post to his own X feed in which he tagged Einhorn, and explained his initial application to work at VryfID because “I found out you were Jewish after the fact.”

Addressing Einhorn, he wrote that “My experiences with Jews have not been pleasant, both in person and online. This is not to say I havent had positive experiences, but on the aggregate that is not the case.”

“Obviously, the reactions by your community only serves to further prove my point,” he added.

Yikes. Sounds like he must use ChatGPT for his homework if he can’t spell.
