At Gartner, we are committed to ensuring a safe and transparent recruitment process for all candidates. Recruitment fraud is on the rise, with scammers impersonating companies like Gartner to obtain personal or financial information from job seekers. To help you protect yourself, we want to share some important tips on how to recognize fraudulent communications and what actions to take if you suspect you’ve been targeted.
How to Identify Recruitment Fraud
Fraudulent recruitment communications often look convincing, but there are clear signs that can help you spot a scam. Please remember:
- Legitimate emails from Gartner will always come from a [email protected] address.
- We will NEVER ask you to wire money, send cash, or provide your bank account information.
- We will NEVER send payment in advance for employment-related activities.
- We will NEVER request personal information or payment for services via LinkedIn or any other social media platform.
If you receive an email or message that violates any of the above, it is likely fraudulent.
