"Resource Snapshot along with Any ID Proof" - It means a screenshot of the interviewee and their ID proof together.

It's a virtual interview invite. They usually ask the interviewees to hold up their ID proof, then take screenshots, before starting the interview.

I'm a Software Engineer.

Currently I'm working for a USA based product company with ~1000 employees (The ones who said "We'll get a new front-end resource soon". "We're opening two more backfills for backend resources". "We need a front-end resource to unblock this ticket".)

The interview invite was for the position of a Tech Lead in an outsourcing firm in India. (The ones who said "Request to panel-Please Take Resource Snapshot along with Any ID Proof and share the Feedback along with IRF post completion of interview."

Edit: In a recent anonymous survey, I gave the feedback to stop treating the India employees as code monkeys or outsourced work, because several have started considering this as "yet another service-company type job", and are thinking to leave. With outsourcing companies, you expect it. But if most indian engineers had clarified that "the India office is not a outsourcing office for this company" before joining, people are gonna be more pissed on being treated like that.
