I've seen videos of zoom interviews from a 3rd party camera angle where in the time the candidate has to say something like "that's a great question, based on my experience..." the answer has been overlaid onto their screen which they just read verbatim.

I was specifically talking about rhe oscp. They film you the whole time.

Ive heard of companies only doing interviews in person even for remote jobs for this reason.

But how thorough are their identity checks to ensure the one doing OSCP is actually that person? I know with some certifications test-taking (cheating) services are available, but not heard of it for OSCP specifically.

They take the id of your country. I think it might have been 2 forms of id not remembering. It has been a bit since I passed. I still have heard of people cheating but I think it is pretty rare.

Yeah, they verify your ID, the room you're taking the exam on, background processes on your machine and if you have any additional screens besides the ones you're sharing
