Honestly, if hiring standards have fallen so low that NK operatives are able to get through, then more power to them.

I'd be shocked if a simple 15-20 minute conversation with the interviewee's perspective manager wouldn't eliminate all chance of this happening. Video filters are still obvious in real time, any decent interviewer can tell if a person is being fed answers, just ask them more detailed information about their background and projects and not just leetcode-type questions.

All of this just goes to show how abysmal (in some cases anyway) the hiring process is for offshore workers in the first place.
