> then someone else shows up

someone else shows up ? what is the denominator



We've seen that also. You interview someone online, help file the paperwork to get into the country and work visum, and then someone else, a technically much weaker guy, shows up on the first day. We had that twice in the last two years


wild. So the paperwork and the visa etc was all actually filled out with the details of the weaker guy? Including the photo and suchlike? crazy that gets past the companies immigration lawyers Also, doesnt he just get fired straight away and lose his visa? Seems like very high effort and low chance of success, I must be missing something


This is in EU. You have three months to find a new job, which I found here after your comment made me think [1].

This may be a reasonable gamble, as many companies do probably not expect such a rochade, and do not have detective measures in place. And if that doesn't work, you still have 3 months time to find another job in an environment that favored job seekers at this time.
