Trust me, many Big companies still hide their name.

Most of them use recruitment agencies/HR professionals/consulting firms to carry out the process on their behalf.


You are right dear

Re: How To Identify A Scam Interview Invitation by mizskyhigh: 11:06am On Aug 17, 2015
To all those asking if the job invite they got is a scam or not,I have this to say...If all you stand to lose is your transport fare(applies to only those within the state of the said invite),then I strongly advice you go check it out.

Forget that you didn't find anything on the organization on google(it might just be a fresh organization),provided the time and location given is safe,then give it a shot.wink

Was scheduled for interview on the 8th of Aug,of cause I thought it was a scam,especially since I couldn't find anything on the said organization,called the number and after several missed calls,the phone was answered,the guy said I'll be told everything I needed to know about the organization on the day of the interview.shocked Whew!

Was there on 8th,checked out the building and it looked habitable and nothing close to rituals(lol),but to my disappointment,I called only for them to reschedule over the phone,they apologized and even promised to refund my T.p. Long story short,yours truly was bend on seeing how it all ends,after all,nobody will force me to pay a dime for anything,went back on 15th and the interview did held and my Tp was refunded as promised. Now I can't wait for the "come for your appointment letter call"cry

Funny enough,its we the applicant who apply for the job and when we get an invite,we are quick to think its a scam...

As soon as they start asking for your money,Run! Run and never look backgrin wishing us all a scam free job hauntsmiley

HooxJnr:
Many companies no longer use gmail or yahoomail to receive applications from prospective applicants but a corporate mail. Eg recruitment@gtbank.com. In this 21st century, any company that can't afford a corporate email is probably a sham. I receive a lot of spam mails whenever I apply for a job using private mails.
yes that's very true brother. And pls let's stay away from such "A reputable company or a reputable Bank is seeking young and talented graduates..." they are mostly scammers. They sent me invitation in Lagos but I refused to honour it.
They nature of their messages/mails is clumsy and unprofessional. If Zenith bank want to advertise the'll rather used "Zenith bank" than to use "a reputable bank" cos hey! They are reputable!

Pls scam or real. who else received it?

Any interview scheduled for weekend I always say is fraud and perhaps the office was borrowed to lure unsuspecting applicants or else why would an organizational interview during the weekend.

There is Always that knack at the back of our head stating this invite is not right but then, out of desperation, we tend to go.

I keep getting invite from M.GLOBAL/MGLOBAL/HRMG; all having d same text and address like I was a fool.

All the best peops cos no one can be too careful...

EBT means Esther break through..I have fallen into their hands once and they extorted #2500 from me..don't even go there.

They are very organised scammers..u won't even realise it at first but on a long run nobody go tell u say u don enter one chance.

True; giving you a fake test and you wud be shocked that though in your heart of heart, you did not do well yet, you passed then you would be asked to pay N2, 500 before being sent to the "supposed company" of employment but not until you have agreed to give them part of ur first month salary ( a salary u myt nvr get cos the so called company work in sync with them). Mine was Blue ocean strategy I guess; we were mandated to market airtel cug bt nt until we were also scammed to pay for the product we want to market ... SMH
