A Trusted Job Search
At Express Employment Professionals, your job search experience is our top priority. Protect yourself from job scams by following these steps:
1. Verify the Employer: Research the company thoroughly. Check their official website, look for contact information, and read reviews. Ensure the job posting comes from a legitimate source. If the advertised employer is Express Employment Professionals, contact the local office directly to confirm legitimacy of the opportunity.
2. Beware of Red Flags: Be cautious of job offers that require upfront payments, request personal or financial information early in the process, or seem too good to be true. Remember, Express Employment Professionals never charge job seekers a fee.
3. Communicate Directly: If you receive a job offer or communication, contact your local Express Employment Professionals office directly, using verified contact details, to confirm its legitimacy.
4. Protect Personal Information: Never share sensitive personal information, such as Social Security numbers or bank details, unless you are certain of the legitimacy and have verified the offer. Again, contact the local Express Employment Professionals office to confirm.
5. Report Suspicious Activity: If you suspect a job scam, report it to relevant authorities.
