Recruitment fraud used to mean an exaggerated CV. Generative AI has raised the ceiling considerably: polished cover letters written entirely by AI, fabricated portfolios, and in the more advanced cases, deepfake video used to fake an entire interview, sometimes for a candidate who doesn't exist at all.
For remote-first hiring in particular, this isn't just a hiring-quality problem. A fraudulent hire with access to systems and data is a security incident waiting to happen, especially in technical or financial roles.
Recruiters increasingly need the same instincts security teams already have: verify identity through more than one channel, be alert to inconsistencies between a candidate's claimed history and how they perform live, and treat hiring as part of the security perimeter, because increasingly, it is one.
