160,000 resumes on Chinese recruitment site Zhilian allegedly exposed and leaked

Posted on July 11, 2019 by Dissent

The company first reported the case to police in June 2018 as it found users’ information had been traded on Taobao, Alibaba’s e-commerce website, Zhilian said in the statement. Two staff from the Zhilian’s Shanghai bureau were then arrested by police two months later in August.
