    That sound like a fun idea.

    Is it illegal to use a fake name for such interviews, or rather - can it get you prosecuted, i.e if the company would get really salty and sued you for their incurred manpower? As long as you don’t submit any fake legal documents, just sending a fake CV with fake name and creds, maybe going to an interview or two, only to bail out before providing anything legally binding, is it a persecutable crime?

      If companies can catfish prospective employees, then interviewees can catfish prospective employers.

      That being said, the law almost always stands on the side of corporations.

      What do you think? Why not do it under your real name? No harm in interviewing with a company, getting to the final round… Some higher up VP or exec, and then telling them that you could do their job better than them cause you aren’t a soulless ghoul like them. Be careful they might be into that dominating kinky shit & offer you an exec position.
