Pnet website & alert emails

[oldBastard]

I'm not the best-est of developers, but would this not this be classified as a bug or not very good development?

I'm currently in the market for a new job. A friend of mine is also in the market and in the same field of IT. Anyways he forwards pnet alerts that he gets to me, if he thinks it will suit me better.

Pnet doesn't keep you logged in, so when I do get these emails I don't have a session open to Pnet, haven't seen or tested it while I'm logged in.

So when I receive the forwarded Pnet alert email from him and I open it up, Chrome by the way, it open's up Pnet with him logged in.

I can then access his whole profile.

yup does seem like a bug - chances are he sends a link with auto login in the html link which is not idea when you sharing emails etc - unless of course you have logged in as him and the session is on your PC

Like I said, Pnet doesn't keep you logged in, I receive the email and once I click the link, the Pnet link open up with his credentials logged in.

Pnet has the below note on all job alerts that you and your friend choose to ignore.
Job Alerts are applicant specific.
The link provided within this email will automatically log you onto your own profile on the system.
Do not forward this email through to a 3rd party, because they will also then automatically have access to your profile.


I don't see a bug there.

Then you should have a notification, or change it.
