Disclaimer

Hello Folks,

Thank you so much for visiting My Blog. I post job listings for the convenience of CMA Fraternity. I do not endorse or recommend employers, and a posting does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation. I explicitly make no representations or guarantees about job listings or the accuracy of the information provided by the employer.

I am not responsible for safety, wages, working conditions, or any other aspect. It is the responsibility of the applicant to perform due diligence in researching employers when applying for or appointments and to thoroughly research the facts and reputation of each organization to which they are applying. The applicant should be prudent and use common sense and caution when applying for or accepting any position, and they should review the cautionary information 

Use caution when receiving contact from potential fraudulent employers. 

While student contact information is often already publicly available on the internet and elsewhere, out of an abundance of caution we recommend that you take care when you are contacted by someone you do not know via phone or email, especially if the communication is unexpected and references your resume. Phishing is one of the most common forms of online threats, and everyone should employ common safety procedures to protect themselves from phishing incidents, including:

• Check that the sender's email address matches the sender's name.

• Be on the lookout for misspellings and poor grammar, which can be an indication that the email did not originate from a trusted source.

• Watch for unsolicited emails, phone calls or text messages that push you to act hastily or that seem too good to be true

• Before clicking on a link, hover your mouse over the link. This will show you the actual web address embedded in the link.  Check this against the actual web address of the trusted source.

• If you are still unsure, contact the source through another trusted channel (for example, a customer support number listed on the official website) to verify the email is legitimate.

It’s important to always vet any employer outreach through Handshake, any other recruiting platform, email or over the phone.  

Generally, if a job posting, email, or interaction with an employer contains any of the following, end all contact with the employer.

• Offers to pay a large amount of money for very little work or sends you a check.

• Offers you a job without ever interacting with you.

• Offers to send you a check before you do any work.

• Requests personal information from you such as Social Security Number, bank account numbers, PIN number, PayPal account, credit card information, copies of your passport or license and/or other personal documents

• Requests that you forward, transfer or send by courier (i.e. FedEx, UPS), or “wire” any money to any employer, for any employer, using your personal account(s) or that you obtain and forward any prepaid gift cards.

• Requests to have funds or paychecks directly deposited into any accounts by a new employer. (Arrangements for direct deposit or paycheck should be made during your first day or week of actual employment on site – not before.)

Exercise Extreme Caution When Asked to Pay Any Fees

Most legitimate employers will not charge to hire you! Don't send money for work-at-home directories, advice on getting hired, company information or anything else related to the job

Review Payment Information

• When information about salary is not listed on a job posting, try to find out if you will receive a salary or be paid on commission. 
• Find out how much you will be paid, how often you will be paid and how you will be paid. 
• If the company does not pay an hourly rate or a salary, be cautious and investigate further. 

 

Follow these safety tips when going on an interview:

• Always ensure it is in a public place and that someone knows of your plans to interview and the location.
• If your instincts tell you it’s suspicious, it probably is.
• Do not feel pressured to give personally identifiable information in an application if you are not comfortable during an interview or during online/phone correspondence. Ask to take the document with you to complete and return so you have time to research the issue further.
