This is not the first time that the use of matrimonial websites for purposes other than dating has made headlines. Last year, a woman attempted to hire a candidate she met on Jeevansathi.com. She asked for a resume and sent an interview link to her match. Additionally, one Twitter user found his soulmate through a job application on Bumble, a dating app.
