This story is a bunch of nonsense. I don't know if it's a book proposal or an experiment for a sociology class, but it's certainly not true.
Think about it, folks: a recruiter made this proposition at an ON-CAMPUS interview? Do you know what the consequences would be if she reported this? First, the entire company would be banned from recruiting. Second, the interviewer would be fired immediately (and probably sued by his firm) for sexual harassment. Third, the university ITSELF could get sued for allowing this to happen, meaning lawyers would insist on holding sexual harassment workshops, outraged campus women's groups would (quite rightly) hold protests, the MSM would cover it, etc.
And that's just for starters. Many things (which I won't bother enumerating unless asked) simply don't ring true.
"Melissa Beech" should have called herself "Helen Troy": the face that launched a thousand blog posts.
