Description

I was contacted by a representative supposedly named Nicole Weaver and via email. Instructed me if I was interested in a job application because they saw my résumé through a hiring website to then download zoom and enter this ID key to there and pre-interview questions to see if I would be a good fit for, whatever job offer they were implying. After about two rounds of questions five apiece she there and said she had to consult with other representatives with the department to see if I was a good fit. This all went through a zoom password ID key text conversation through the app And it went over the course of two days with trying to set up meetings and orientate orientation. They asked me my qualifications and what programs I may be using and then if I didn’t have any product that it would be provided via voucher and/or electronic deposit and or credit card so they and we could go and buy the supplies and begin orientation ASAP. Amount of pay requested was exceedingly offered and definitely did not match the qualifications of my background and being transparent in that with the rep it was disregarded, once I received the ““ acceptance letter of employment, there knew something was wrong, because of the letterhead of the corporate company.
