Re: How To Identify A Scam Interview Invitation by LamiWilliams: 11:18am On Nov 10, 2019
Don’t fall victim to these totally avoidable job scams. Here are some ways to identify false job postings and avoid them:


1. Wonky Language

This is a definite no no. Companies take extra take extra time to proofread their job postings. If you find grammatical or spelling errors in a jobs ad, it is most likely fake. Always verify any posting or call for interview you come across.



2. No online visibility

In this digital age, companies know that they have to have an online presence. In fact, no online presence means you’re not serious about getting your product/service to your target audience. When you get an call for interview email or see a job posting online, Google the company. If you find nothing about the company, don’t waste your time with it anymore. Some scammers could go the extra mile and create an online presence. Look out for companies who have suspicious domain names, have no contact address/phone number, have no real information about they what they do. In any case, to be extra sure, copy the job ad or website here



3. Non Branded EmailBranding is key with companies these days. If you have taken note, you would see that comapnies usually have their employee’s assigned to their company’s name. So, if a company is names WriteAssit, an employee’s email would be esthersmith@writeassist.com. If a job posting says you should send an email to an @gmail.com or @yahoo.com email, think twice and verify before applying.



4. WhatsApp Interview Notification
We get that the professional world is working hard towards making the job application process more friendly, but this is ain’t it. No real call for interview would be sent to you via WhatsApp. Companies would rather email, call, or send you a text message with enough details about their company including a website. If you are scheduled for a remote interview via Skype or phone call, that’s acceptable. Anyway, confirming would keep you safe.


5. Miracle jobs
These scammers know that people are desperate for employment. Unfortunately, they play on that and release mouth-watering offers that seem too good to be true. Be careful of job postings with extremely high salaries for jobs that usually have lesser pays. They also siphon email and phone numbers from the Internet and randomly send interview emails or text messages. If you did not apply for a job, you most likely won’t be “miraculously” called for a job interview.



6. They want money.

Think about it; they need you to pay them to pay you? It’s a big no. Don’t apply. Companies usually won’t require you to pay for an interview.


An advice for you is that you should not sign up on every job platform you see. A lot of time, your details get siphoned that way and you become a prey to scam job posting and call for interview. Also, trust your instincts. If you feel something is not right, do your research. Itarj.com (Is this a real job?) is a great tool that allows your to verify if a job posting is real or not. Use it now and share with friends and family! You would literally be saving lives

Re: How To Identify A Scam Interview Invitation by Blackgirllagos: 9:55pm On Nov 10, 2019
Just recently, I realized the LinkedIn App is the most overlooked and under-used app amongst all platforms for job optimization and that probably people tend to think it is boring. Well, the LinkedIn platform is made for serious business and gives no room for the regular unseriousness social platforms allow.



The LinkedIn platform isn’t for just anyone as it helps to connect you to those that are related to your career and would be of much help to you. Sometimes, before sending an application letter, part of your homework should be to look for the HR officer of the company on LinkedIn, this is so you can address your cover letter and application letter to the person, it personalizes your letter so the recruiter will sit up and notice you.

Personally, i think it's best to look out for people holding key positions in the company and connecting with them or addressing the letter to them.

As graduates, students or any job seekers, LinkedIn is an important tool for job seeking but the sad things is that it is overly underrated and so many people are on this platform but they actually don’t maximize the benefits.

There are certain rules to guide you while using the LinkedIn platform, they are;

#Rule 1 : Only put up professional profile picture

It is important to know that if your profile doesn’t have professional pictures, prospective recruiters would not take you serious. People tend to use filtered pictures like LinkedIn is Instagram. this is a typical red flag.

Using professional but beautiful picture attracts people. They know you are there for real and straight business and not just there to joke around. Every employer wasn’t a beautiful and presentable employee even if it’s not on the basis of a full time job.

#RULE 2: Make your headline Catchy

This is another important rule. Most people use funny headlines as “Fresh graduate at Lexoft Media”, such headline won’t be taken seriously as most employers want someone with experience so it’s better to write things like “ Human Capital Management| Project Management | HR Enthusiast".

This helps the explain the career you are into. All these should be tailored towards your career direction. It helps to show how intentional you are about what you want.

#RULE 3: Don’t confuse your "About" section with your Headline

Confusing the About section with the Headline is easy but you should know that the Headline only allows few words and the About section is where you infuse your career objectives. Although people tend to see your Headline first before checking your About so if the headline is not catchy and well constructed they don't bother to go further to the about.
