Securing Candidate Interviews with imper.ai

Overview ​

Remote hiring introduces a trust gap into the hiring and interview process. While recruiting platforms manage candidates, interview stages, and scheduling, they do not establish whether the person attending a remote interview is actually the candidate they expect.

This creates several risks throughout the hiring process:

  • Applicant impersonation - The person attending the interview is not the person who originally applied for the role.

  • Identity switching between interviews - Different people participate in different interview stages while presenting themselves as the same candidate.

  • Fraudulent or concealed candidate identity - A candidate deliberately misrepresents their identity, location, or working environment to gain employment under false pretenses. This includes sophisticated fraudulent-worker schemes, such as those associated with DPRK IT workers.

These scenarios can be difficult for Talent Acquisition teams and interviewers to identify consistently, particularly when signals are spread across multiple interview stages. imper.ai helps surface fraud signals throughout the interview process, providing organizations with a consistent way to identify suspicious candidates, verify identity, and assess risk throughout the hiring process.


imper.ai for Hiring ​

imper.ai is embedded directly into your existing recruiting workflows without changing how your team works. Interviews are scheduled exactly as they are today, while imper.ai adds a seamless layer of security throughout the hiring process.


What You Get ​

imper.ai adds security throughout the hiring process while fitting seamlessly into your existing recruiting workflows.

  • Protection throughout the hiring process - Identify risk throughout the interview process, helping teams detect candidate impersonation, identity inconsistencies, and other indicators of hiring fraud.

  • Built into your existing workflow - Continue using your existing recruiting processes while imper.ai adds a security layer in the background, without introducing a separate workflow for your Talent Acquisition team.

  • Visibility across the candidate journey - Review verification results, risk signals, and interview activity in the imper.ai Admin Panel, with both organization-wide visibility and candidate-level context.


How does it work? ​

imper.ai integrates with your recruiting platform to secure the hiring process through identity verification and risk analysis at each interview a candidate attends.

Verification Before Each Interview ​

For protected interviews, imper.ai automatically sends the candidate a secure imper.ai verification link in place of the original meeting link. The candidate completes the verification flow and is then redirected to the original meeting. This happens inside your existing recruiting workflow and does not require recruiters to change how they schedule or manage interviews.

Real-Time Risk Analysis ​

During verification, imper.ai analyzes risk and surfaces suspicious or high-risk behavior - such as impersonation attempts or anomalous devices - producing a risk result for each candidate.

Consistent Identity Across Interview Stages ​

imper.ai links verification activity across interview stages and can surface identity inconsistencies when different individuals appear to participate as the same candidate. This adds visibility beyond any single interview, without requiring interviewers to compare candidates across rounds manually.
