Identifying a Scam Job Posting | Employer Engagement and Career Design

What is a Scam?

The great majority of employers are honest, but for those employers who are not, be aware of these security tips:

Protect Yourself!
Never pay a recruiter or an employer for a job
Never supply a bank account, social security, credit card, or deposit a check and forward it from your account.
If the job sounds too good to be true, it probably is (for example, “no experience necessary” “earn money fast”)
When you are in doubt, ask a career counselor in Employer Engagement and Career Design or Google the company name with the word “scam.”
