Polygraph test when applying for a job, is it generally normal?

Question

Career in IT

For the first time I hear such that programmers are tested on a polygraph. This is fine?

Answer 1

No, not normal
Also indicative of a disgusting level of SA and/or practices
Why:
- the polygraph is not reliable
- the polygraph can be bypassed
- the analysis of the output is carried out by a person
Which means that the SA does not know how to work, which in turn means that all dogs will be hanged on a random of a person
No amount justifies the risks that lie behind such behavior of the employer

Answer 2

Answer 3

Sometimes yes, in jewelry and banks.
If you want a big salary, you will pass like a sweetheart.
Usually those who are not lucky to work in serious large organizations in responsible positions are outraged.

Answer 4

Answer 5
