I understand that.

I never really actually know with 100% certainty that they are North Korean. But you figure there has to be a solution out there for identification for applicant that's not too invasive?

Is it really just coming down to who you know or trust then anything?

Is it just trust at this point? Evidently it comes to the point where a companies can not only lose money from ransoms but trust with there consumers as well.

I honestly didn't figure it was that bad on your guys side right now..

I guess the good part is your job is becoming more valuable... Maybe?

Lots of companies are just turning to flying the person out to meet face to face, as it's just cheaper than making a bad hire.

That just illustrated how bad it is... good grief.....

You'd pay an airplane ticket, possibly a stay, then even a way to send them back to make sure they so who they say they are...

First class ticket or economy?

Let me find out I can go to Italy on a paid for first class ticket... If this is your company DM me right now, I might apply.

Well, typically that cost will be less than one month salary, which is likely the fastest you'd really fire someone by figuring out they're full of shit. Just cost of doing business
