Come on admit it, you either thought it was Katrien, or you think I've just put an idea in her head.

    If it was KM I would absolutely swipe right so I could "meaningful dialogue" with her.

    It's the new sexting...

    It's basically an iPhone app version of Would Ya?

    I haven't heard of either of those. I've led a sheltered life.

    If a bloke had done this to recruit women?

    The Guardian would be all over it. Calls for arrests, public hangings for all men...

    Bugger you just beat me to it... Would be sexism of the highest order and disgusting that a woman was being hired for her looks

    Serious question, is hiring chefs exempt from equal opportunities legislation ... one for @Henry Irving ?

    Tinder is essentially an app is college kids use to find/meet girls or sometimes get a cheap thrill.

    Probably a better strategy than sticking pins into a map of Belgium :-)

    Interesting that you go down this road rather than pointing out that this lady's recruitment methods (if it's only Tinder) completely exclude women from getting a job with her company.

    Maybe she doesn't want to employ women. Her business, her choice

    Shame it can't ever be the other way round though... If an man said "I dont want to employ women, my business, my choice" people would go crazy

    If this was happening the other way around then this thread would have more than 16 comments for starters!
