Description
Appen USA Talent claims to be a company that partners with other companies to hire people to work from home for special projects. The website seems legit and even some of the positions that are posted on their career page seem real. The application and interview processes are very sketchy. You could receive a job, interview, and offer all within 2 hours. There are mainly emails on their website to contact someone. I've only seen two numbers. One of them belonged to another business and the other one given for HR contact doesn't work. No matter what department you ask to be transferred to, there's never anyone available. You can't even get in touch with anyone through the chat they have on the Appen USA Talent website. A major red flag is that once you're "hired" you are required to pay for a course that will "help you perform in your role better."
