🚨 Alert: Rise in Employment Scams Amid Economic Downturn 🚨   In these challenging times, it's vital to stay vigilant against employment scams. Unfortunately, Omnicell, like many other organizations, has observed an increase in fake job offers and interview phishing scams.   🔍 What to Look Out For: ◾ Unsolicited job offers or interview requests via text or email. ◾ Requests to click on links, open PDFs, or provide personal information. ◾ Communications not originating from an official Omnicell email address (ending in @omnicell.com).   📧 Remember: ◾ Omnicell will never send job solicitations in such a manner. ◾ All legitimate Omnicell correspondence will come exclusively from an email address ending in @omnicell.com.   ❗ If You Encounter a Scam: 1. Do Not open attachments or click on any links in suspicious emails. 2. Report the incident to the US government at https://lnkd.in/dsasPiBF. 3. Notify the Omnicell recruiting team at recruiting@omnicell.com for further assistance.   👍 Staying Safe: As a candidate, your diligence is crucial. Always verify the source of job-related communications, and when in doubt, reach out directly to the organization for confirmation. Let's combat these scams together and ensure a safe job-searching experience for all. #EmploymentScams #JobSearchSafety #OmnicellCareers #RecruitmentAlert

📢 Beware of Fake Job Offers: My Personal Story 👀 I applied for a position at a well-known global brand and was contacted by a recruiter. After exchanging a few emails, completing a test, and doing a written “interview,” I was thrilled to receive a job offer. But I noticed something unusual – the email address did not originate from an official company domain. Sensing something was off, I insisted on continuing our communication through official company channels and requested the name(s) of the HR personnel who would handle the next steps and onboarding. As I expected, the emails stopped immediately. This experience was a harsh reminder to always be vigilant when applying for jobs. Scammers can be very convincing, but there are always red flags to watch out for, such as unofficial email addresses, unrealistic promises, and unprofessional communication. I want to end this on a positive note and remind everyone to be careful and look out for these warning signs. If you ever encounter suspicious job offers, report them: FTC Fraud Report https://lnkd.in/eQ8zSYWq. Here's a guide to help you protect yourself: FTC Employment Scam Guide https://lnkd.in/ek8NAZnB. Additionally, you can report employment scams to: ✅ Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) https://www.ic3.gov/ ✅ Better Business Bureau (BBB) https://lnkd.in/eAyY4CuP ✅ Google’s Report Phishing Page https://lnkd.in/eaK8G4HN Good luck! Stay strong, safe, and vigilant! 💪 #jobsearch, #careers, #careertips, #digitalmarketing, #humanresources

⚠ ❗ Reminder to stay vigilant against recruitment scams! Here are key red flags to protect yourself: - Be cautious of interviews via text or chat; opt for phone calls. - Verify contacts carefully; reputable recruiters on LinkedIn have a verified badge by their name on their profile. - Look out for poor grammar in messages. - Never share personal/bank info with unknown sources. - Avoid requests for money during applications. - Legitimate jobs won't ask for upfront payments. Protect your personal data from fraudsters. If you think you are a victim of this, report it to https://Inkd.in/eNccimrZ #StaySafe #JobSearchTips

Job scams increased by 118% last year according to HRD America. I see employment fraud plaguing online job boards including LinkedIn targeting one of our most vulnerable populations – job seekers. Sadly, fake job postings have resulted in hundreds of wasted hours for my clients and others who are enticed by the seemingly perfect job. It can happen to anyone. My best friend, who I consider to be one of the smartest people I know (she has her Masters and is currently pursuing a PhD), got duped last year due to a highly sophisticated and professional hiring process. Common indications of a fake job opening include: -All interactions are over the phone or virtual conferencing, without the camera on. -The position is 100% remote. -The salary and expense reimbursement seem too good to be true. -All communication is through one recruiter who, despite your lack of experience and expertise, thinks that you are a great fit for the job. -They indicate that they are an internal or external recruiter for a company that has a website and LinkedIn company page. -The company has no working phone # associated with it. -The recruiter will not give you their phone number. If you suspect a job opening is a scam, here are some things you can do to validate the authenticity of the position. -Ask the recruiter for their phone number. If they don’t give it to you, you’ve got your answer. -Call the phone # on the contact page of their website. If the voicemail is wonky and you try and try again, but no one answers, you’ve got yourself a job scam. -Google the company name to see if other people are reporting them as illegitimate. Finally, prevent anyone else from being sucked into a fake job by reporting it to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov #jobsearchtips #jobseeking
