Porn!!
Hello,
I went for an interview yesterday and one of the questions the interviewer asked was:
"What would you do if you found porn on company fileservers / desktops?"
I'll tell you what I said after a few replies to this thread...

Re: Porn!!
Heh, if I was in the interview, I'd say I'd tell my boss.
In reality, unless it was illegal porn (eg child stuff) I'd ignore it.
What kind of position are you applying for?? heh

Re: Porn!!
Make back up copies...... (for reference)
Bring it to their line managers attention.

It would depend on the company I suppose. If they are in the 'adult business', you could get fired for deleting it.

Re: Porn!!
Good comment - danielf!
Well - this is what I said -
Me: "First I'd take a copy for my own collection..."
Interviewer: "Your the first to admit that!"
Me: "...just joking!" (He laughed so think some points for that!)
Me: "It has no reason to be on company servers / desktops so track down who it belonged to and have a quiet word them - however if it was serious stuff then I'd have to report it...."
One of those BS questions if you ask me but I think I covered all angles!

I can't really see the presence or absence of laughter in an interview being an indictation of the outcome...

Re: Porn!!
But then I suppose they could be thinking that it was not your place to have a word with them it was their place. I mean would it be part of your remit ?
Just a thought !

Right, so you would be part of the disciplinary procedure and they were wanting to know how heavy handed you would be ?
Fair enough, sounds good to me
