Is it a good idea to play pranks on your job search?
Absolutely!
That is… if your profession is comedy-related or you have another good reason to think that the targeted recruiters will appreciate the gag. In other words, do it if it will impress your target audience in a good way.
But anyone else, absolutely NOT.
And you probably get that. Most people are too nervous or stressed to even crack jokes at job interviews, let alone prank anyone. And the risk is just too high that you’ll come off bad and the entire effort will be wasted, taking a job lead with it.
So sit back and enjoy while others do the job search pranking for you.
