I was recently told I had the job for data entry at $35 an hour but they didn't give me my hours or call me at all. Definitely a scam from someone using a name under Inova Health System.
There is a new scam, Vishnu Kaushik that is on LinkedIn, has over 500 connections, but has poor wording and is not a part of the company recruitment team. Please be careful, as the profile appears robust at first. He asked for my resume and a time to call. This was of course very exciting as I had experience that aligned with the bioinformatics position, but thankfully I noticed that something seemed off.
I received an email from "Sophia" from Inova the other day. She had found my resume on Indeed. She set up a Skype interview for me with their hiring manager "Ashlee".
I thought it was odd that the interview was only a copy and paste chat and not a video interview.
When Ashlee indicated that they just happened to be opening an office in my small Arizona town, the red flags came out. Inova does business in the far east and Australia, so why are they setting up offices in Idaho and Arizona? I shut down the interview then and there. No info was passed along thank goodness. Be sure not to give them banking information.
