Employment Scams in the Cleared Community

Security Cleared Jobs: Who's Hiring & How

This bonus episode of our show shines light on employment scams in the cleared community. Our guests Kirsten Renner with Accenture Federal Services, and Kris Rides with Tiro Security and Via Resource, talk about employment-related scams and ways to avoid them.

“They would take one of our real postings, real job titles, real job descriptions, congratulate the person, it had our company logo. It wasn't us. People did their diligence, thank goodness. And they were reaching out to the regular recruiting address at our organization. And that brought to light that this was ongoing.”

“Just listen to yourself. It doesn't matter how exciting the job is or how badly you actually want that job. If you've been laid off, that changes the pressures. Listen to your gut. Something's telling you that it’s off, then hold back. Wait. All these scams that we're aware of like the standard phishing scams, they rely on pace, on not giving you a chance to think.”
