How To Identify Genuine Job Invites by Nobody: 8:55am On Dec 02, 2016 |
While some people are trying to earn a honest living from legal jobs, a particular set of people (let’s call them job scammers) are trying to swindle unsuspecting graduates of the little they have. These are some fool-proof to ascertain the genuity of job mails. 1. SENDER’S EMAIL: No legitimate firm will send out an interview invite with an “@gmail.com” or “@yahoo.com” email address. All organizations have their own customized email address(es). Something like vacancies@nairaland.com would be legitimate as opposed to nairaland@yahoo.com 2. “TO” DETAILS: Just below the mail subject, view details and see how many people the mail was sent to. If there’s any other email asides yours, just run for the sake of your life and wallet. ONLY scammers send “interview” invites in bulk. No sane organization does that. Once you view details and you find several other email addresses as receivers, it is scam. Period! 3. COMPANY LOGO “Most” legit organizations include their logo either above or below the body of the mail. Not all organizations do this but very many do. 4. SALUTATION If a job invite is legit, then the company sure has the name of who they are looking to meet. A legit opening would be; “Dear (your name)” as opposed to an orsinary “Dear”, “Hi”, etc. 5. BODY “Thanks for your application for the post of “customer care agent”, we would like to schedule an interview.…(legit). ‘In response to your application, you have been invited for a “career talk”‘….(Not legit). What the hell is a career talk and how will that put food on the table? Notice also that in the non-legit one, the position you allegedly applied for wasn’t stated. (Epic fail). These are the kind of invites you honour and at the venue prospective drivers, doctors, lawyers, teachers, all take the same aptitude test. 6. PHONE NUMBERS I’m not sure if legit organizations include contact numbers in mails but one thing i know for sure is that if the need to include a phone number arises, it won’t be a personal contact detail. In other words, it would be for more, Mari Williams and Co ltd: 0009875, 008765. . Not call Mike on 08765 or call Angel on 00433. There are several other ways to ascertain the genuity of job invites but these are the ones I’ve discovered work for me. If you have other fool-proof tips, kindly share in the comments section.

IMPORTANT WARNING Please, beware of dangers and beware of strangers asking for directions or questions. Some of them are kidnappers for ritual cultists. TRUST NOBODY Don't escort anyone to anywhere to visit anybody you don't know very well. CAUTION. Beware of agents of evil doers looking for dumb people to use for human rituals. Warn members of your family, relations and friends. If you are traveling by road and the driver is over speeding, wisely tell him you are pressed to urinate and that will make him to slow down and stop. Use the time to pray for safety and warn of the dangers of over speeding. AVOID DRIVERS YOU NOTICE DRINKING ALCOHOL. AVOID LATE JOURNEYS AND NIGHT TRAVEL. Be safe! Stay alive for the Glory of God. Amen. Pass on and share this warning. 3 Likes |
