Imagine if a company could figure out exactly how desperate you are for a job…

Then use AI to offer you the lowest salary they think you’ll accept.

That’s the idea behind wage surveillance.

Companies are collecting more data than ever before, from AI interviews and online activity to your location and personal information, all in an effort to make hiring cheaper. The less they think you’ll push back, the less they have to pay.

In this video, we’re talking about wage surveillance, AI interviews, personalized salary offers, why you should stop oversharing during the hiring process, and how companies are using your own data against you.

    Isnt this the point of capitalism like its explained to children? The employer tries to pay the employee as low as necessary while the employee tries to get that “necessary” as high as possible

    Whether this ensures a fair compensation or not is a more complex topic, but its not relevant to this
