ZipRecruiter CMO Resigns After Report On Alleged Sexual Misconduct

The Chief Marketing Officer of high flying, Los Angeles-based job recruiting technology developer ZipRecruiter has resigned from the company, after a story was published last week by BuzzFeed, detailing alleged sexual misconduct at his prior employer, Uber. Eyal Gutentag reportedly resigned on Friday. According to the report, Gutentag had been terminated from his job at Uber in 2015, over an alleged sexual battery incident, before later joining ZipRecruiter as CMO. ZipRecruiter reportedly now has a valuation of nearly $1 billion, and is rumored to be prepping for an initial public offering (IPO), although the company has not formally announced any such plans.
