Description

Received an email about an application from two different people from the same email address. When questioned about that, they said it was the hiring manager using the manager's email to reach out to candidates. An interview was set up via Microsoft Teams and was not.over video meetinf but just massaging back and forth. During the interview I was asked where I bank, my cell phone carrier, my full name, address, email, and phone number. After the person interviewing me was finished they said they would get back to me within 15 minutes after speaking with head department. I was offered a job and benefits. Everything was to be shipped to me and supplied by employer- new apple laptop, printer scanner fax, headset, paper shredder, etc.
