Just to provide a single anecdote of this, my friend worked as a recruiter at a well known company. If higher ups got proof that you had applied to another job, you would be terminated day of and whisked out of the office by security.
The stories from him and his coworkers of the subterfuge involved in job applications were impressive.

- lelandfe 5y agoThis was a recruiting firm that would call itself a tech company. I doubt they treated engineers the exact way, but I heard similar stuff from data folks that worked there.
