Is this job real?

Answer these quick questions about a job offer you've received. Your answers stay on your device; nothing is sent to us.

1. Were you asked to pay anything? (application, interview, training, medical, uniform, visa or "processing" fee)
2. Were you asked for your M-Pesa PIN, a one-time code, or your bank or email password?
3. Were you offered the job without a proper interview?
4. Is the employer only contacting you from a personal email (Gmail, Yahoo) or only by WhatsApp or SMS?
5. Can you NOT find this job on the company's official website or official social media pages?
6. Is the pay unusually high for the experience asked, or the advert says "urgently hiring many people, no experience needed"?
7. Are you being pressured to decide or pay quickly, "before the slot is taken"?
8. Is the interview at a hotel, a private house, or somewhere other than an office?
9. Is it an overseas job from an agency you can't find on the National Employment Authority's list of registered agencies?
10. Is the advert vague about the actual work, or full of spelling mistakes?

The golden rule

Genuine employers never ask you to pay to get a job. Not for the application, the interview, training, a medical, a uniform or "processing". If money is involved before you start work, walk away.
