Hi - I got an email from Elizabeth saying there was an SVP Operations role that she wanted to put me forward for - and a request for my resume. I did an internet search and found the company's webpage (PE Recruit) but also reports of scams involving this company. The website looked legit, so I sent a response to Elizabeth to say - my LI was up to date, and let's chat more. She emailed back to say 'I’m unable to provide further details at this moment. For our initial client discussions, please forward your resume.' I sent another response to say - hey - this is not how recruit firms normally operate, would you be willing to share your model so I can understand how we might work together? I then got another response with the exact same wording 'I’m unable to provide further details at this moment. For our initial client discussions, please forward your resume.' that established for me beyond doubt that there is something fishy going on - recruiters don't behave this way. I didn't lose anything but I'm reporting it because it's shameful to see scams that prey on people in need. People who need a job are in need. The more reports you get - the easier it will be for action to be taken for this operation to be shut down. I see that people have been talking about this scam since 2021, but it's still operating - it's really sad.
