The problem is that you hire someone legit that could pass any verification, but the person you talks to once hired is not longer the candidate.
If you don’t notice it on day one, it’s almost impossible to detect it afterwards. The fake dev could be somewhat competent even and do a great job.
- jjk166 4y agoOkay but you know the name and identifying personal details about the person you verified, and the person you talk to once hired needs to give you their photo ID. If the person you are interacting with doesn't match the photo on their ID, or if the name or identifying information on the ID is different from the one you verified, then it should be immediately clear they are different people. It's the person who interviewed that had to be the fake.

And you are familiar with the things they expect you to be familiar with. I mean if you can somehow find someone who is able and willing to do your job for you for sufficiently lower than your salary that you'd be willing to pay them and who wouldn't just get the job (and the full paycheck) for themselves without the middle man, then cool, go drink margaritas on the beach while your subcontractor slaves away. As long as they're not like foreign spies or something, why would anyone care?
