Stay Alert for Recruitment Scams
As you explore job opportunities with our company, please be cautious and wary of recruitment scams in which fraudsters pretend to represent prominent companies.
Unsuspecting applicants may be invited to participate in bogus interviews, asked to fill out fabricated employment applications, or even receive fake offer letters, all with the goal of enticing victims to pay money or divulge sensitive personal information.
Keep an eye out for these red flags during your job search:
Communications
- Unsolicited communications from unfamiliar individuals or websites, or whose domain name is inconsistent with the actual business.
- Correspondence from free e-mail accounts like Yahoo, Hotmail, or Gmail. Occasionally, our recruiters initiate communication with candidates via LinkedIn, however, we never solicit candidates through non-Lumeon e-mail addresses (@lumeon.com) or phone numbers.
- Communications that do not include information about a specific job opening (or the job description is vague) and/or extend a job offer without an interview.
- Unsolicited communication where the recruiter claims to have seen your resume on a site with which you are not familiar.
- Communications at the application phase requesting sensitive personal data or information, such as your national identification number, date of birth, social security number, bank account information, passport information, or any number appearing on identity documents.
Interviews
- Utilization of video chat rooms (e.g. Google Hangouts) to conduct interviews.
- Any other video interviews, other than our approved interview platform, Zoom.
General
- Requests from Lumeon for monetary payments at any point in the hiring process.
- Job opportunities that come from people you do not know and appear “too good to be true.”
