[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yep, seen many"essays that worked" that just aren't good or don't say much about the applicant.  It's all so dumb.

Maybe [b]bring back the interview instead[/b]. They they can "get to know the applicant" and there's no cheating.  Just as subjective as the essay review.[/quote]

There is an entire expose of how North Koreans are faking zoom interviews and getting hired for jobs, with the interviewer thinking the person is located in the US and thinks the interviewee is some random white or other non-Asian candidate.
