I have been asked to sit on an interview panel for a position that I know my boss has applied for.

If he gets the job, I have good shot at getting his.

I pointed this out to the hiring manager and they see nothing wrong with it. Ethics shmethics I guess.

I declined the invite, despite the advice. No sense in two people getting axed over breaches.

Considering management and hiring standards are under a microscope right now, definitely. I am not going to be a scapegoat.
