How to spot fake job postings
Red Flags of Job Scams:

 

  • Unsolicited Offers: If a recruiter contacts you first and offers a job immediately, be cautious.
  • No Interview Required: Legitimate employers always conduct interviews.
  • Too-Good-To-Be-True Pay & Flexibility: Extremely high salaries for minimal work are a red flag.
  • Requests for Payment: No legitimate job requires upfront fees.
  • Unprofessional Communication: Poor grammar and casual emails signal a scam.
  • Missing Contact Information: Verify the employer’s details before applying.
  • Early Requests for Sensitive Info: Social Security numbers and bank details should only be shared after hiring.


When working with ClinLab:

  • Use Official Channels: ClinLab Staffing emails only come from @clinlabstaffing.com.
  • Verify Contact: Check our official website or LinkedIn postings to verify that the ClinLab person you are speaking with works for us.
  • Call, message or email us via our website if you feel concerned, someone can verify your job offer or posting.
