New type of SCAM - fraud during online recruitment?

In the article from Ask a Manager, the situation is discussed where a new hire shows up on their first day looking and acting different from the person who was interviewed. This phenomenon can be surprising for managers and teams who may have had positive expectations regarding the new addition to their group. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding that the first day in a new job can be a stressful experience that many people react to in various ways. Often, expectations do not align with reality, which can lead to dissatisfaction for both the employer and the employee. Therefore, the author suggests that the best approach is to give the new employee time to acclimate, along with maintaining an open dialogue about any potential issues or concerns. Close monitoring of progress and regular feedback conversations can also help in gaining a better understanding of the new worker's needs during the initial phase of employment.
