Safety Disclaimer — Read Before You Apply

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
