Police said the manager informed them of the incident on Aug. 14, one day after the man had sent her two naked selfies over three days, the Chicago _Tribune_ reported. Elmhurst police chief Michael Ruth said the company had made the 23-year-old man a “conditional offer of employment” earlier in the month. “He texted the HR director and sent a nude photo of himself,” Ruth added. According to the police report, the man admitted to sending the photographs but said they were meant for someone else. The company did not respond to calls for comment from the _Tribune_. “My understanding is they’ve rescinded the offer of employment,” Ruth said. \[[_Chicago Tribune_](http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/batavia-geneva-st-charles/news/ct-tri-st-charles-naked-selfie-job-tl-0903-20150831-story.html)\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4018216/chicago-man-naked-selfies-hr-manager-company/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4018216/chicago-man-naked-selfies-hr-manager-company/"},"headline":"A Man Sent Naked Selfies to the HR Manager of a Company That Offered Him a Job","datePublished":"2015-09-01T05:55:14.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:24:06.570Z","description":"Not exactly getting off to a good start","url":"https://time.com/4018216/chicago-man-naked-selfies-hr-manager-company/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Technology","police","Bizarre","chicago","Company","Aurora","employer"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Rishi Iyengar","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/rishi-iyengar/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4018216/chicago-man-naked-selfies-hr-manager-company/","name":"A Man Sent Naked Selfies to the HR Manager of a Company That Offered Him a Job"}}]}] ```
