Hi everyone! Looking for some advice - we have had some cases where the candidate that interviewed is not the same as the one who joined 🤨 how are your organizations ensuring ID checks ar interview stage?

I’m in NA and we check IDs for specific roles that we have had issues with. It’s not illegal as we did it at my last company too. Maybe ask for a gym ID or library card?

Tell them to be prepared to have their drivers license ready for a video/in person interview. If you kindly explain the issues you’ve run into it shouldn’t be an issue. I used to run into this with technical candidates.

We take a screenshot of the video interview and confirm with all the interviewers during debrief prior to extending offers.

What do you mean? Not the same person based on appearance or they lied on their resume?

This is becoming more and more common. We’re also seeing resumes with completely made up companies on them.

Wait what?!?! How does that happen?!?! I am so confused.

Hello Fishes,

I am in talks with 3 startups for now. One offer is on the horizon. Rest two, interviews will be done this week.

How much to ask? (I'm thinking 45LPA with base >=18 or 20)

My profile:

Currently a part of 'WITCH'

3 YOE

Backend profile, Python automation

PS: 3rd one is a US startup, said they're gonna directly pay in dollars$$ so their offer will surely beat everyone else's, but I'll get it only after clearing interviews.

How would you approach an interview process where the company sounds exciting but you feel confident the role would not be a growth opportunity for your skill set? Is there a good way to respectfully approach that topic with the interview team and find a role that might be more exciting for you? Or is it better to walk away?

Not sure if this is the right bowl to ask but is anyone here willing to case with me? Have an upcoming interview with BCG. No pressure, only if you have time and if you want to help someone get through case interviews :) currently in the UK!

Resume question that I struggle to answer. If someone has been working for ~20 years and has worked at a number of companies during that time (let’s say 10 for the sake of this example), the resume becomes way too long. Is it okay to remove the 1st couple of jobs that were held after college even if relevant? Or maybe delete a job or 2 if they aren’t 100% relevant to the rest of the person’s career? Final option is to leave names of companies (and titles) of early roles but delete the content.
