Internet Job Search Safety

Please keep the following tips in mind during your job search to avoid scams and identity theft:

• Legitimate employers do not charge a fee for interviews, hiring, or any part of the job application process. Nor do they ask you to send money for software or other equipment after hiring you.
• Do not provide personal information such as SSN or a checking account number until you are certain the hiring manager and company are legitimate.
• Be wary of any offer to hire you without an in-person interview at the company's office.
• Only use websites, such as MilitaryHire.com, that screen employers to ensure they are valid.

By keeping safety in mind you can protect yourself from scams during your Internet job search.
