| Nov 1, 2016 at 13:58 | comment | added | Mathematics | @dan1111 Like I said outcome of doing so is different in different situations, hence my general advise is to stay away from doing so. Don't forget there are HR's that don't like sourcing.. | |
| Nov 1, 2016 at 13:55 | comment | added | user45590 | -1 for the warning not to send strangers' CVs. There is no downside to doing so, and the fact that the OP had a brief conversation with them and thought they were worth considering is useful information to HR. As the OP notes, the exact same thing happens at recruitment events and is considered standard. | |

| Nov 1, 2016 at 7:19 | comment | added | Mathematics | @Casey If there is no problem then why OP asked a question about it ? Obliviously in different scenarios output will be different for what OP did... hence the best way to deal with such cases has been suggested by me | |
