Comment on What should I do if someone applied to a job at a company I work at without being able to legally work in my country?

Unless there’s some method for you to help them become eligible to work in your country, you legally need to put the company’s safety first. If you give different reason to hide things you could be exposing your company to liability, so the safest option for both the company and for the applicant is for you to straight up ghost them.

The problem is that there is a recruiter as a middleman. This would be a lot easier if there wasn’t a third party fiscally interested in this.

  It’s pretty simple, the candidate didn’t meet the requirements.
  
  Not sure why you’re involved, this is an HR and legal issue. If HR said they don’t have docs showing eligibility, then that needs to be reported to the recruiter, otherwise they’re going to recommend this person to somewhere else, and run into the same issue. How would you feel if you were in their shoes?
  
  Whether someone can legally work somewhere is not your pro lem to solve, unless you can actually do something, like help them submit appropriate paperwork (I’ve done this for employees who were temps, to help them get more permanent status).

  the recruiter should have vetted them better. Part of the reason to go through a recruiter is to avoid these things.

  The recruiter sent you a non-elligible candidate. That’s just as much their problem as it is yours.

  Yehn just tell the recruiter that they were impressive in interview but seemed not suitable in the role.

    We already expressed going forward with the candidate.

    You could tell the candidate your concern and they could say that negotiations have failed to the recruiter, as could you and then you both are pulling out.

    If you are in the HR department call your legal department. If you are not in the HR department, call HR.

  What if it’s also a trap set by trump goons. Wouldn’t put it past them.
