Tips For Avoiding Job Scams
Cavan is a great place for clients and artists to connect and collaborate on projects.
Here are some tips to help you avoid job scams:
- Be suspicious of any job that seems too good to be true. If the pay is very high, the job requirements are minimal, or the company is unknown, it's probably a scam.
- Never pay money to apply for a job. Legitimate companies will never ask you to pay for anything, such as training materials, background checks, or application fees.
- Be wary of job postings that ask for personal information, such as your Social Security number or bank account information.
- Do your research. Before accepting a job offer, take some time to research the company and the person who is offering you the job. You can search for the company online, look for reviews, and contact the company directly to verify the offer.
- If you think you may have been the victim of a job scam, report it to the authorities and to Cavan. You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
