Safety Disclaimer — Read Before You Apply
- Protect your data. Legitimate schools ask only for the documents required to process your hire (CV / resume, degree / certificates, passport copy for visa). Never send full bank statements, full ID numbers, or any personal information that isn’t clearly needed.
- Never pay to apply. You should never be asked to pay an “application”, “processing”, or “training-kit” fee, or to buy equipment for later reimbursement. If money is requested at any stage, treat it as a red flag.
- No salary skimming. Reputable employers pay you your full contracted salary. If a recruiter or school wants a percentage cut of your wages, walk away.
- Verify the employer. Communicate only through the contact details published in this advert or on the school’s official website / social channels. If someone approaches you from a different email, phone number, or messaging ID, confirm their identity before sharing anything.
- Report concerns. If you encounter a scam, fee request, or salary-cut scheme, please report this listing immediately so it can be investigated and removed.
