Hi
There are many instances where in a company has offered a job but the
candidate, after a few days gets to the conclusion that the company doesn’t
exist or it is a fake company. While some of these fake companies never
roll out the offer letter, others make the candidates work for free or for
peanuts for a couple of months and fire the candidate citing reasons like
performance/ no projects etc. Most of the companies have tie ups with
training centers which is a mutual business. The candidate pays a lot of
money to undergo the training at the training center which says “100% job
guarantee”.
They are guaranteeing you a job at a fake company which pays you peanuts.
Typically lesser money than what you paid for the training. The balance
amount is their profit. Beware of such training centers/ companies. It’s
very unfortunate that these things are happening in some engineering
colleges too, where the management ties up with a fake company to do
on-campus hiring just to show off that there are companies visiting colleges
for on-campus drives. The company never sends an offer letters to the poor
students.
We are seeing a lot of posts and questions from candidates asking us if a
particular company is genuine or fake. You can easily find out by following
these points.
- Check the “About Us” section of the company. Address and Phone number
should be clearly mentioned. The design of the pages should be very
professional if it’s a real company. If it looks immature and looks like a
simple blog with a bad UI, it is suspicious especially if it’s an IT company.
- Take a look at the services offered on the website. Make sure that the
role, for which they hired you, is present in the services. If training and
placement is included in services, it is suspicious.
- Read the reviews of the work life and salaries of the companies on the
internet, you can find them in sites like glass-door.
- Research about the revenue/ profit the company has made in the last few
years.
- Check the client’s list if present on the company website. See that it has
got some very good reputed clients.
- Research about the number of employees working in the company.
- Try to find if there are employees working for the company via linked-in
or other social networks. If you can find someone through you connections
on linked-in, connect to the person and en-quire about the company.
- If everything listed above appears to be genuine, make a visit to the
center and see if the company exists. If it is, try to talk to an employee
and en-quire about the company.
Have a great day!
