How To Identify A Scam Interview Invitation



 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.

 Pls if you have any experiences in the hands of these scammers kindly share it below so that others can learn and avoid them too.
