Nametag has launched Recruit, an identity verification platform designed to combat AI-driven hiring fraud, including deepfake interviews, AI-generated résumés, synthetic identities, and candidate impersonation. The platform verifies that applicants are real individuals and remain the same person throughout the hiring process, from application to onboarding. Integrated with major HR systems such as Workday and Greenhouse, Recruit automates identity checks while avoiding long-term storage of biometric data. The solution reflects growing employer concerns about hiring fraud as generative AI makes it easier to create convincing fake candidates and credentials.
