Hiring the Enemy: When Job Scams Target Companies and Consumers Alike

Every fake applicant incurs a cost to an organization, measured in recruiter hours, interview panels, background check expenses, and in the most severe cases payroll and equipment loss. But the hidden cost is even steeper: the opportunity cost of qualified candidates who never make it through the application process. By 2028, <a href="https://www.gartner.com/en/documents/6343879">one in four applications</a> could be fraudulent. The structural fix starts earlier than most teams have been looking.
Socure’s Workforce Verification, now integrated within Ashby&#8217;s marketplace through RiskOS™ orchestration, moves identity validation to the front of the hiring process. 
For Ashby customers, the integration is seamless and requires no engineering lift whatsoever. In less than 10 minutes, Ashby customers can configure the integration and become operational with Socure’s workforce verification workflow. Leveraging <a href="https://www.socure.com/solutions/riskos">RiskOS</a>’s AI-powered no-code workflow builder, the verification can be customized across the entire candidate’s journey. 
RiskOS automatically evaluates identity risk whenever a job application is submitted. RiskOS automatically initiates a <a href="https://www.socure.com/products/document-verification">Document Verification</a> request whenever an offer is accepted by a candidate. The result is delivered to the Ashby dashboard as a tag recruiters can immediately use. If the recruiters want more details, RiskOS provides a robust Case Management solution to review any evaluation, including fraud and risk model scores, reason codes, document verification decisions, and Gen AI features that explain the “why” behind each decision.
<h2>How Identity-Centric Screening Works</h2>
Identity-centric screening reframes the entire funnel. Socure correlates core PII to determine risk without adding any friction to the candidate experience. Low-risk signals pass silently, preserving a fast and no friction experience for legitimate candidates.
<h2>The Business Impact Across the Hiring Lifecycle</h2>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Recruiter Productivity: Automatically stop interviews with risky or <a href="https://www.socure.com/blog/inside-socures-identity-first-hiring-test">fraudulent candidates</a>, freeing recruiters to focus their time on top talent. Recruiters can focus on what matters: finding great people. 
</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Faster Time-to-Offer: Move decisioning earlier in the hiring process, ensuring only risky applications are escalated while legitimate candidates advance faster. 
</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Lower Costs: Eliminate fraudulent candidates at the application stage, reducing wasted background checks and costly late-stage rework.</li>
<li>Compliance and Auditability: Integrate <a href="https://www.socure.com/glossary/sanction-screening">sanctions</a> and <a href="https://www.socure.com/products/global-watchlist">watchlist checks</a> directly into workflows, capturing reason codes and AI explanations for clear audit trails.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Performance at Scale</h2>
The performance envelope matters when you’re scaling. Socure’s workflows are designed to evaluate signals in real time and escalate only when warranted, helping organizations flag between 80% to 85% of fraudulent applicants when a resume is submitted. This improves hiring velocity by enabling teams to focus on good candidates.
<h2>Pragmatic Alignment</h2>
Socure + Ashby represent pragmatic alignment: an applicant tracking system built for speed and clarity, paired with identity decisioning optimized for the first click of the funnel. The result is a cleaner pipeline, a frictionless experience for legitimate candidates, and a hiring engine that doesn’t have to choose between speed and certainty.
