Leaked Interview Questions to Chinese Recruiting Services

Know that interviews are wrapping up at some shops and just kicking off at mine. Noticing a pretty ridiculous trend this year where a lot of Chinese candidates (who are not the most polished / behaviorally strong) seem to have our sample technical answers memorized word for word. Even when we throw curveballs or slightly change the question they somehow have the exact framework ready..

Buddy of mine mentioned these recruiting agencies charging 50k like OSG collect interview questions through their mentors (usually analysts at banks) and circulate them to candidates. Not sure how much truth there is to it but wondering if people at other banks are experiencing something similar
