Help on homeworking vacancy in jobcentre, is it real?

2

Comments

  • I think it's a jolly bad show the Jobcentre people don't check these vacancies better than they do. Just because a vacancy is on their website does not mean it is legitimate.

    I once saw one that offered £10 for delivering 1000 leaflets to people's doors!

    Even Santa Claus would have difficulty making minimum wage at that rate.

    I emailed them for an application form and when they sent it back it was addressed from Renshaw Solutions, bit funny but i googled Renshaw Solutions and found 6 months ago that they were advertising the same jobs on the net as Vastel Solutions.

    Very dodgy. Wonder what their aim is though?
  • Did anyone apply for these jobs? if so has anyone had a reply?

    why are people so suspicious these days. I registered and posted as I wanted some advice as I have heard a lot of bad things about the company. Anyway I never went to the interview, didn't fancy wasting my time, but I am still curious as to whether they are a scam or not! Did anyone go to their interview?? How did it go?
  • You are still uncertain about whether or not this is a scam, despite all the information on here?
