Is it normal for a recruiter to ask for your date of birth (Month and Year) and the last four of your social? 👀 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

The recruiter says the client (Pharma) is asking for this. 🤔 What say you?

Post their LinkedIn profile here. Why? Cause lots of scams coming from India that ask these types of questions. Happen to me and I blocked. If you posted, we can review if it’s legit, but already sounds it’s not.

Some clients (especially big corporations) ask for it when we submit candidates. If your choice of course but they won't let us submit you without it.

Oh gosh, absolutely not!

I just winded up Product Sense interview at Meta. The interviewer started with quite some intro and then followed up with a question on “why would you like to work at Meta?”. That again took away some time. During the interview, I sensed a lot of urgency from the interviewer to get to articulating the user problem, and the interview overall went not as expected! Because I couldnt follow the structure I had thought I would like follow. Anyone here with insider knowledge of how this might go down?
