Reducing China supply chain hiring risk is the core threat facing Western firms today. Our deep checks have proved a stark reality: 72% of candidates are lying to get the job offer. I started this company because I found out what was really happening behind the resume and the interview, but when we compiled the statistics, we knew that a 72% falsification rate meant extreme risk.Why would a candidate lie in the interview?
They must have something they do not want you to know—and it is certainly not their best achievements.
If they are holding back from you in the interview and succeed in getting the job, what do you think they will hide while working for you? Why would corrupt people choose supply chain work in the first place?
That is likely the reason that sourcing and procurement roles are historically the among the most vulnerable to corruption and resume inflation.
The “Smart and Corrupt” Risk Multiplier
Another problem is that companies want to hire smart and talented people. That is completely understandable. The problem is that if you hire a smart, corrupt person, your risks go yet higher.
When your leadership is entirely remote, you cannot afford standard recruitment. You don’t just need a supply chain manager who speaks fluent English and understands logistics. You need Trustworthy Talent® whose “Yes is Yes” and “No is No.” If 72% of managers falsify their backgrounds, how sure are you that your remote sourcing hires aren’t padding their own pockets at your expense?
It is unfortunate that a politically skilled supply chain manager who knows how to perform perfectly in an interview can easily manipulate a remote Western manager while secretly taking kickbacks from factories or falsifying supplier capability reports.
