Soham Parekh is all the rage on Twitter right now with a bunch of startups coming out of the woodwork saying they either had currently employed him or had in the past.

Serious question: why aren't so many startups hiring processes filtering out a candidate who is scamming/working multiple jobs?

Lots of YC companies copy each other process and selection criteria. Basically- they all have the same blind spots and look for the same type of engineer.

So, super easy to scam all of them with the same skillset and mannerism.
