A jobseeker was left gobsmacked after a recruiter called her a 'piece of c**p' in a text message - then later said it was sent by mistake.
TikTok user Jasmine had been talking to the recruiter about an opportunity and they sent her a text to see if she was still interested.
But at the end of the message, the recruiter added the offensive description, before later texting again and blaming it on a typo.
Jasmine shared the amusing mishap on TikTok where her video had over a million views, before adding that she decided to decline the position.
