My sentiment would be: "hiring is broken, but I'd reject this guy too".
Sounds like you've found a good weed-out criteria for a hiring company that isn't a good match for you!
This would be a great question for rejecting an otherwise qualified job candidate ...
You're not filtering him out of the hiring pool, he's filtering you. ;)
opting out would put a big red flag when hiring
Wouldn't that be some kind of a contra-indication? Not a definite "don't hire" signal, but pretty close.
I mean do you by all means, but from a hiring perspective this would be behavior we would evaluate negatively in our process. YMMV of course, and you have the right to these choices.
I don't think someone like this would actually get hired…
Would you mind sharing what company you're hiring for so that I can actively avoid it?
This sounds to me like the type of thing an employer would look for to have a reason not to hire. If potential employers are looking for this, something is already wrong. It could be market-driven (eg. too many people to choose from) or they already don't want to hire you, or something else.
