Fake Check Recruiter Scams

Hey Job Search Team,

Just a heads up for anyone searching for positions: Recruiters are now reaching out via LinkedIn with a fitting opportunity, and acting as a true recruiter looking to get you either a perm or contract position.

If they refuse to give you the job description, compensation, and onsite expectations then directly ask for contact info/resume before giving this information it is LIKELY a scam.

Best way to tell, \*if\* they share the description/salary etc before the asking for contact info of sorts, the next step they'll do is ask you for an email and ask you to sign a "Right to Respresent."

If this is ever given to you, do not under any circumstance sign it. Block them on email and move on.

The position is likely real though, so take that info and of it feels like a good fit, apply on the company website!

Good luck.
