We’ve observed an increasing trend—common across the industry—of candidates misrepresenting themselves during the hiring process. This includes individuals who have embellished their resumes or, in more serious cases, assumed entirely fraudulent identities.
To help us ensure a fair and authentic interview experience, we kindly ask all candidates to disable virtual backgrounds during video interviews. This simple step assists us in verifying identity and maintaining the integrity of our process.
