Socure's AI-Powered Global Watchlist Screening & Monitoring

How Synthetic Applicants Are Infiltrating Your Hiring Process

The Resume is Fake

The modern hiring funnel is under attack—from the inside. A new wave of synthetic job applicants is making it past resume screens, interviews, and even background checks. These aren’t one-off bad actors. They’re professionalized, persistent, and increasingly AI-enabled.
In this session, Socure’s HR, fraud, and technology leaders reveal how a global fraud ring nearly got a synthetic applicant hired at a high-trust role—and why the traditional hiring process couldn’t stop it.
