I’ve struggled with this problem in a large organization as well. Even when it was shown that the resumes being submitted were mostly fake (that is, the majority of the contents were copied verbatim from random resumes on popular resume aggregation sites) the bigger issue was fixing the overall talent pipeline. If the vendors don’t care, and your vendor management doesn’t care, and your HR doesn’t care, then all the tech to detect a fake resume _probably_ won’t help you. IME there didn’t seem to be a lot of inclination or incentive for people to address the root of the problem, but hopefully you have more success.

I work for a cloud computing company that would have benefitted (and hopefully contributed) from being on that Slack. If you have the time, would you mind reaching out to me with details? My email is in my profile.

For anyone in St. Louis, MO, Launchcodestl.com is starting a free in-person study group for this class that will meet two times a week. I am not affiliated, but it does sound like a great opportunity for anyone who wants to start programming or who wants to brush up on the topics.
