LaurelP:
I have seen so many Nairalanders complaining and lamenting their ordeal in the hands of fake scam companies who invite people for interview only to introduce them to fake drug marketing business.
I'm doing this not only because these companies waste people's time, energy and T-fair going to such interviews, but also because most of these scammers extort money from hapless job seekers thereby making their suffering times two.
Imagine a scammer extorting #10,500 from a graduate who have been unemployed for years, not to talk of the transport fare wasted going to such fruitless interviews or job chat as they usually call it.
Some people even borrow money to pay these sheep in wolves clothing, who promise them heaven on earth. Some will tell you that you will make half a million within 1 month and all that. If you're not careful, you will take a loan that you will not be able to repay thus causing embarrassment and lack of rest of mind. An unemployed person should have only himself to worry about, not having debts also.

So I believe that if we are properly guided, we will not fall into the hands of these scammers.
Having said that, there are ways by which one can identify a fake or scam interview invitation and there fore avoid such waste of time and money. The good thing is that most of their messages come in the same format, so you will know its fake!

1. The message does not bear a company name: most of these scammers won't include their names on the message you will receive. All you will see are the address, the time and date and a phone number. A genuine company will not hide its identity from a potential employee.

2. The message will say "interview/job briefing": whatever job briefing means I don't know!
3. You will see a code or reference: something like "HR=0056" or "REF=002". This is an indication of the code number of the person who invited you to the "job briefing".
4. It will contain a phone number: this is the number of your referer. Most genuine companies don't give phone numbers.
5. You will see HR Admin in the message instead of company name
6. If you call their number, they will be reluctant to give info on the company.


And pls, ignore those people sharing job flyers on the streets, and those ones they paste on walls. Those are scammers and some ritualists too. And also most of these so called agencies are avenues for duping unsuspecting job seekers. Pls shine your eyes well well.
I will post the names of some of these fake companies/ agencies later.

Pls if you have any experiences inthe hands of these scammers kindly share it here so that others can learn and avoid them too. Thank you

Cheers!

When you finally get a legitimate job interiew, here are a few things not to say during the interview

How to Identify a Scam/Fake Job and Interview Invitation Messages 2023:

You can avoid been scam by follow the below instructions
scams, fake jobs/recruitment, fake interview invitations are the talk of the day in Nigeria today. Thousands of Nigerians have fall victims of fake job alert and fake job interviews, most persons have been scammed, extorted, doped of money, time, and resources all in the name of seeking for a job opportunity.
Identify fake Job/recruitment 2021 Many strategies have been employed by these set of person just to extort money of job applicants across the country.

It not long that a fake Npower screening test site was opened to collect useful personal data from npower applicants, likewise the Nigeria Custom Service fake exam slip printing site was created to extort about #3,500 from NCS applicants. On a daily basis, scammers flood the internet to make money in the expenses of others not minding the financial status of the person involved.

That is why we are writing this post to awaken you to some of scammer’s tricks. How do you identify a fake job? How will I know that it is job interview? So many Job applicants are complaining and sharing their experiences in the hands of fake scam companies who send bulk SMS, inviting people for interview only to introduce them to marketing business, asking them to buy money to get the job, some even get killed or kidnapped along the line.

instance extorting #5,000 from a graduate who have been unemployed for years, letting him/her waste transport fare, time all in the name of getting a job which is even a fake one.
The painful experience is wasting a whole day all in the name of job interview.

Imagine an applicant paying #3,500 for a federal government free interview/exam; this is very bad and unlawful.


Imagine a graduate scammed of #300,000 to get shell, AGIP, Mobil job among others, promising theme to make up to half a million or more within 1 month. Due to the current situation of the country they fall prey to such enticing words.
