Stay Safe in Your Job Search

Protect yourself from scams and fraud while looking for your next opportunity

⚠️

  • Job offers without an interview
  • Poorly written job descriptions
  • Unprofessional email addresses
  • Pressure to act immediately
🔒

Protect Your Data

Personal Information Safety

  • Never share your SSN or bank details early in the process
  • Be cautious with your driver's license number
  • Use a separate email for job searching
  • Create strong, unique passwords
  • Watch for phishing attempts
✔️

Safe Practices

How to Search Securely

  • Research companies before applying
  • Use reputable job boards
  • Verify contacts through company websites
  • Trust your instincts
  • Report suspicious postings

Important Warning

Legitimate employers will never ask you to pay money for a job opportunity. If a company requests payment for training, equipment, or background checks before hiring you, it's likely a scam. Always verify the company's legitimacy through independent research before providing any personal information or payments.
