Is it ethical to recruit suicidal candidates, as in “Searching for software engineers who have suicidal ideations”?
The rationale is that if a suicidal person is still alive, they might have the stamina to withstand difficulties other than internally fighting against themselves.
Mental health issues are usually a do-not-hire red flag for many corporations, when they are discovered (e.g., through social media posts of candidates or OSINT). Why not explicitly give them the opportunity, while recognizing their core issue?
