> Bait and switch. Apparently some devs contract out their end of the hiring process, paying "experts" a couple hundred bucks to interview under their name, get them the job, then on day 1, the interviewers and rank-and-file developers none the wiser, show up as a different person with the same name, without the requisite possibility to pass the interview or succeed in the workplace
There’s no fucking way this is real. There is NO possible way that a human could actually think this could work in their favor and be OKin any way.
- bryanrasmussen 9y agowhy not, I mean criminality of all sorts happens and this isn't even criminal. Of course it requires not meeting HR or interviewers after interview/on hire, which means it's really only good for big companies.
- mchannon 9y agoSpeaking from experience, small companies can fall for this too. Companies that completely isolate the existing employees from candidates are just asking for trouble. A single-digit percentage of recruiters will now make a point of photographing the interviewee as part of the process.
