Safe Job Search Guidelines

Learn to Recognize - A random spam message turn into information worth sharing. I got this letter from LiNa of Jobstreet.com.

Dear Shernan,

We would like to share with you some information and tips on safe online job searching.

Illegal ads sometimes do appear on job sites. JobStreet.com will always endeavour to ensure that job ads on our site are for legitimate job opportunities only. Ads that contravene our Advertisement Policy are removed when they are identified.

However, there are times when such ads that violate our policy may get posted. If you find any ad of the following nature, please do not respond to it but tell us about it:

Ads that require payment for applications.

Ads that promote pyramid selling or similar schemes.

Ads that are untrue or misleading (e.g. misleading job title, job description or company description).

Ads with dubious ethical credentials (e.g. social escorts, etc.).

You can email the ad to policy@jobstreet.com, giving the Company Name and Position Title, and we shall investigate.

Also, JobStreet.com discourages advertisers from misusing your application information, such as:

Any advertiser/employer/staff using the information in your job application to approach you and sell insurance, promote multi-level marketing (MLM) or make offers that are not connected to the job advertised;

Offering jobs that require you to pay money, processing fees, training fees, make a purchase etc. in order to obtain the job. Should fees be required, verify from an accredited government agency if the company is a licensed recruiter and/or placement agency.

Jobs that seem proper up to the interview stage but later, are revealed to be a guise to promote other schemes.

While we will try to take appropriate action whenever possible, JobStreet.com cannot and shall not be liable for any action by employers that violate our terms of use.

Lastly, do not provide your Password to anyone, even if it appears to come from an email with a JobStreet.com address. We do not ask passwords from our members.
