My job was not βas advertisedβ
Charmaine Cozier and guests explore the pitfalls and tips on how to get a job
A ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ investigation has found that more than 50 people were tricked into working for a design agency that turned out to be fake. They were hired during the lockdown and convinced the company was a successful business. But it had an online universe of fake profiles, stolen work and lies. Workers were all Jobfished.
Charmaine Cozier talks to ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ reporter Catrin Nye who investigated this story for the past 12 months and to former employee, Jordan Carter about what happened to him
The programme also discusses what lessons we can learn to keep safe while searching & applying for jobs and what you can do if your job was not βas advertisedβ?
We are offered guidance by:
