Detecting and Defending Against Candidate Misrepresentation
On-Demand Webinar
About
Candidate fraud is evolving fast—and it’s getting harder to detect.
According to Gartner, by 2028, 1 in 4 job applicants could be entirely fake. From AI-generated resumes to deepfake interviews and proxy test takers, misrepresentation is no longer a fringe issue—it’s a growing threat to hiring integrity.
So how do you separate real candidates from increasingly convincing fakes—without slowing down your hiring process?
In this on-demand webinar, industry experts Kellison Rose, Jen Jones, Hannah Rodriguez, and Frank Hauben break down practical, real-world strategies to help recruiting, HR, and TA teams identify and prevent candidate misrepresentation at every stage of the funnel.
You’ll learn how to spot red flags early, strengthen your screening process, and build a defensible system that protects your organization—without adding unnecessary friction.
Whether you’re just starting to notice suspicious patterns or already dealing with sophisticated fraud attempts, this session will give you the tools to stay ahead.
