How would this work long term? Are they never expected to open their cam for a quick chat or urgent team task?
Or actually do work? Clearly the output would be different from what they expect based on the interview. Maybe it's just about that first paycheck and they do it in parallel to multiple companies.
One of my friend worked for an IT contracting bodyshop 15 years ago. He was a pretty good dev.
His company would occasionally ask him to "audit" interview processes for their clients. They would give him a new name to prevent client from "finding out". He would go through phone screen, onsite interviews. Then he would need to write up a report about the whole process, interview questions, who he met, who said what, etc.
They would pay him pretty decent money on top of his salary for it.
Of course, he knew what it really was, refusing to do it may end up costing his job, so he kept doing it.
