Good question
There is no way to Verify “you” are not outsourcing to “Mark” from Bangalore. There have been instances of this happening before. A client caught a regular employee who spoke well but got work done by hiring his own developer offshore. He got caught because the client detected offshore originating IPs coming into their network;

It’s like back in the day when the contractor you interviewed on the phone is clearly not the one that arrived Monday.

Happened so many times. We had policies for interviewers to take a picture of them next to a license picture so they can verify when they show up: so much fraud in IT

So that person would do your job interviews and perform your job and you get the money? I don’t see the incentive for the “better looking, better qualified” person to do this, even overlooking the fact that presumably most people have enough integrity and self-respect to not even consider this.

Better question - how do YOU actually know you’re YOU? You know, considering the matrix and all...

Multiple ID checks via video. Submit regular I9 documentation scanned and then video call another day to show they’re in your possession. Ask to retain said I9 documentation for in-person inspection upon return to office.

Wow. If a companies IT makes this easy that’s a big red flag. There’s 2FA on most SSO nowadays

2FA only works if the intended party doesn’t participate in the fraud.

I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?

Hi Fishes,

I am looking for the job change in ServiceNow profile and having a experience of 4+ yrs.

Currently I am trying to create network in linked in and naukari but still not getting the response from some companies like JP Morgan or mindtree etc.

Can u help me to understand what is the best way to create a network to some major companies.

I know applying directly to the company site mostly doesn't have any benefit or will take long time to schedule the interview.

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.
