I can appreciate the idle curiosity, but for your consideration any call made to a presumed-fake candidate is an opportunity expenditure that could go to an actual candidate. As someone who never even got rejection emails from a bunch of companies from the whoishiring thread, I'd prefer if that precious time on Earth were spent accepting or rejecting candidates
- jenthoven 2y agoSure. We accept or reject all candidates as quickly as we can. But do you think this candidate should be progressed or rejected? Our actual decision was to ask them to send in a video introduction before we schedule a phone screen with one of our engineers.
- mdaniel 2y agoI like that and wish that was the new resume practice since I'd bet someone could get a lot more signal from hearing me talk about why I'd be a good fit rather than ATS screening my PDF out The bad news is that I bet listening to 50+ video pitches is more exhausting than reading 50+ PDFs
