6,3 Milliarden Dollar haben nordkoreanische Hacker von der Krypto-Börse Binance gestohlen. Wie? Mit Hilfe eines Fake-Jobinterviews mit einem Binance-Programmierer. Ich freue mich schon auf die Verfilmung. www.nytimes.com/2026/11/04/b...

A recruiter says an iced coffee makes you look "too casual." An iced coffee tells an interviewer almost nothing about whether you can do the job. So what are we actually testing?

What would you want to know before recording an interview answer?

YOUR INTERVIEW MAY BE OVER. YOUR RECORDING MAY STILL EXIST.

Some employers ask applicants to record answers instead of speaking with an interviewer live.

You read a question. A camera records your answer. Someone may review it later.

CareerOneStop describes this as a one-way video interview. Unlike a live conversation, you may not know who will watch your answers or what will happen to the recording afterward.

Applicant story for 2026-11-02, card 2 of 3. Those details are worth asking about before you press record.

Try these questions:

• Who will be able to view my recording?
• Will anyone outside the hiring team have access?
• How long will the recording be kept?
• Will software be used to review or score it?
• Can I request another interview format?
• Whom can I contact if I have a technical problem?

An employer may not be able to answer every question immediately. Asking does not guarantee a different process or a particular outcome.

But the answers can help you decide how to proceed.

Applicant story for 2026-11-02, card 3 of 3. Before recording, check the instructions. Make sure your sound and camera work. Choose a place where you feel comfortable and where private information is not visible behind you.

If you need another format, ask the hiring contact what options are available. You do not have to guess what the process allows.

An interview is a chance to show your experience.

It is also a chance to understand how your information will be handled.

Mein Chef prangert meinen lachsen Umgang mit dem „F-word“ in Meetings an und ich dachte. das sei auch der Grund, warum ich nicht mehr soviel mit Jobinterviews behelligt werde. War leider ein Irrtum. Nächste Woche stehen mal mindestens 3 an 🫣

Interviews are tests. Tests of what, exactly? If your process doesn't measure the work, you're not rigorous, you're just weird. We dig into broken hiring tests. buff.ly/jdhe4vF

#jobs #jobinterviews #thecoffeefight I see this notion is still causing arguments. So from an interviewers perspective, here's what may be gleaned from bringing a drink that is spillable to an interview, or eating your lunch while waiting in the lobby.

Nobody expects you not to caffeinate, just do it beforehand like a professional.

I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

I’ve had more than fifty jobs! I only brought one thing to an interview - me ready to go to work! I never cared about honesty! The only thing I was honest about was I needed a job having a family and all! Companies loved me until I started talking Union!#JobInterviews

A live streaming role that doesn't require a video application? Something doesn't add up. You wouldn't cast an actor without seeing them perform first. #HiringMistakes #JobInterviews
