Identifying Fake Recruitment Agencies and Companies in Nigeria
This compilation aims to expose reported fake recruitment agencies and companies that scam job seekers in Nigeria, particularly in Lagos, Port Harcourt, Abuja, Ogun, and Oyo States. These deceptive entities create distressing experiences for job seekers, offering fake employment or posing as legitimate organizations.
It can be heart-wrenching when applicants invest time and effort in preparing a winning CV, applying for a job, getting called for an interview, or receiving a job offer, only to discover it was all a ruse.
Some of the entities on this list are not genuine corporate entities, while others are GNLD/Multi-Level Marketing companies seeking to recruit downliners.
The Challenge with Fake Recruitment Agencies
Many fake recruitment agencies deceive job seekers by falsely presenting themselves as legitimate employers. They often promise corporate job offers but fail to deliver when candidates attend their organized interviews/tests. Sometimes, the companies don’t even exist, or they misrepresent their actual business activities.
As responsible citizens, we must protect unsuspecting job seekers from falling victim to these fraudulent schemes. The high unemployment rate in Nigeria makes this even more crucial during these difficult times.
Identifying Fake Recruitment Agencies in Nigeria
To avoid falling prey to fake recruitment agencies, job seekers should watch out for certain warning signs. These include:
- Fake agencies often lack a recognizable digital footprint or website.
- Messages from fake agencies may contain grammatical errors and disjointed language.
- Legitimate recruitment agencies always specify the job position and title in their adverts and messaging templates.
- Authentic agencies will never demand any financial commitment from job seekers to secure a job placement.
- Genuine agencies use corporate email accounts, not free email services, to communicate essential information.
