    This is a great idea of course but it’s kind of hilarious because if your tool ever became even a little popular it would completely destroy itself. People will find a way to filter stuff like this out because it will be incredibly annoying.

    You should add a “polite” setting if you don’t already have one that only searches for hiring managers and stuff. Maybe you’re already doing that though.

    Be gentle. When I get an email like this, I appreciate the cleverness, but I direct the candidate to our normal intake process.

    If they persist, it's an immediate no-hire. Can't Follow Instructions / Main Character Syndrome.

    Same as others have said. Unless you're targeting single digit amount of people start-ups this is a bad idea.

    This will probably hurt your chances, bypassing the normal interview process is usually frowned upon.

    That sounds extremely annoying for the people receiving these emails, right?
