No the interviewer is personification of the naive backend that checks only that a specific row is present in the DB, or that's how I read it.

So I guess the interview is handled by a non-vulnerable intermediate process, which adds the hire to the the main table of employees when at some point in a successful interview, and then calls a notification process that just searches it?

yeah something like "if new candidate in employee DB == hired"
