CEO: The No. 1 question that 'cuts through the BS' at job interviews. It 'catches managers off guard—but that's why it works' CEO and Harvard-trained career expert Suzy Welch says there's one question you should never leave then job interview without asking. The answers are often "more honest, less rehearsed, and far more revealing," she says.

Dawid Moczadło, co-founder of Vidoc Security Lab (right) interviews a candidate (left) who appears to be using AI software to disguise their face

Back in March, cyber security firm founder Dawid Moczadło posted a recording of a job interview he’d conducted.

The candidate’s appearance blurred strangely and he refused to put his hand in front of his face when asked too. Dawid suspected the candidate was disguising his face using artificial intelligence and shut down the call.

He told me he believed the person could be a North Korean IT worker in disguise. For BBC Trending, we’ve spoken to North Korean defectors who have insider knowledge of a secret scheme run by the government in Pyongyang.

It’s estimated that thousands of North Korean IT workers are deployed to China, Russia and countries in South-East Asia and Africa to fraudulently secure remote work by concealing their real identity to raise money for Kim Jong Un’s regime. Last year one firm was hacked after accidentally hiring a North Korean cyber-criminal.

We sent Dawid’s video to digital forensics experts at Get Real Security who confirmed it’s highly likely the candidate was using some kind of face-swapping or AI filter.

Although we don’t know for certain that the person Dawid interviewed was definitely part of this scheme, we do know cyber security and software development professionals are becoming inundated with suspicious candidates. One tech founder I spoke to believes he’s interviewed up to 30 North Koreans in disguise.
