Recruitment Safety Tips

1. No Payment: No legitimate employer in Nigeria (especially the FCSC or NGOs) will ask you to pay for a job application or “processing fee.”

2. Verify Links: Always ensure you are on the official company domain (e.g., .gov.ng for government or the official .com for corporations).

3. Check the Date: Since today is April 1st, double-check any “too good to be true” offers (like massive starting bonuses for entry-level roles) on the company’s official LinkedIn page to ensure it isn’t a prank.
