Now made even easier for fraudsters and including state actors thanks to Generative AI. Also:
> Generative AI is making deception easier, but isn’t foolproof. Attackers can trick parts of the hiring process, like a technical assessment, but genuine candidates will usually pass real-time, unprompted verification tests.
This is why Leetcode / Hackerrank and other (online assessments) OA in the technical interview is unfit for use in the age of AI.
> In the modern era, it’s an organizational mindset.
Security is a way of life for this company, but it would have easily fooled a less security-oriented company and it will just only get worse.
