IBOGIRL1:

I need not watch your video cos u already shot ursef . If u guys don't accept corpers but stil demanded for 10K for training and bondage signatory and stil called me the day after to know if I could pay in installments,then it is as I have said. U guys are fraudulent. Quit trying to salvage an already distorted brand. As uv rightly stated, there's no need for this. Goodday!

IBOGIRL1 is 100% right. WAVEACADEMY is a job scam company.
I have been there myself. They advertised customer service representative positions online, I sent my application letter and CV via their email address outreach@waveacademies.org as they requested. I quoted my B.Sc. qualification and 5 years’ experience in my CV. They invited me for interview for the same position via phone call on +2349092900155 scheduled to hold on Wednesday 21st of October but when I got to their office at No 3. Spencer Street off Herbert Macaulay Way, Yaba on the interview and at the right time of 9am, I was told that the customer service position for which I applied was no more available. They went on to give an alternative in positions like Kitchen Assistant, house keeper, barman, waiter and likes with an excuse that the customer service representative position for which interview I was invited was no more available. They also went on to tell me how I must pay a N10k training fees, sign terms and conditions that I will give 1/3 of my first salary etc. even before I can get such positions I was offered in alternative. It's just pathetic what the country has turned to. I am still looking for the proper law enforcement agency where to report WAVEACADEMY.

New Nation should be a well-known scam company to many people right now. I wonder why a genuine business organisation would be requesting for 22 tall beautiful girls from Delta State. Funny enough, modelling is not among their businesses. A firm that conducted a 5 min interview and declared all applicants as successful and asked them to pay money! Dukwe should rot in Hell! grin

Dukwe New Nation has an office in Asokoro, Abuja too

Re: How To Identify A Scam Interview Invitation by MazadoGoodman: 12:59pm On Oct 29, 2015
Please does anyone know anything about FOOD HYGIENE INITIATIVE OF NIGERIA? A friend came to me with their appointment letter which states that he is employed on Grade level 7- Step 3, that he should pay 30k as training fee by 6/11/2015.
It was the 30k that caught my attention as being somewhat odd—this being neither a workshop nor a seminar. Now, I can't find anything about the organisation online. It claims to be NGO.
Please help out...
