How to recognize an unscrupulous employer

Employment Announcement

    Vacancy announcements are placed on poles, fences, stops.
    The announcement contains a vague description of the vacancy: work in the office, they often offer work in a new office in the city center, with papers, with people.
    The announcement says a limited number of vacancies.
    Impossibly high salary promises.
    Low and vague requirements for applicants are indicated: determination, decency, without work experience.
    The ad does not have full contact information.
    Phone contact numbers are 070 or 090. These are fraudulent phone numbers.

A quality vacancy announcement should contain the full name of the company, field of activity, job title, clear requirements for the candidate, his duties, working conditions, adequate salary and full contact information.
Meeting, telephone or email conversation with a company representative

    A company representative does not voice its name, limiting itself only to template expressions such as “large”, “dynamic”, and “rapidly developing”. Or a fictitious name is given.
    The scope of the company is not indicated.
    The scope of the company is strange or unusual. For example, the dissemination of information about services, the production and marketing of cosmetics or consumer goods, networking, etc.
    A company representative is hazy about your future position.
    The representative is ready to talk about job responsibilities only at an interview, and not by phone.
    There is an evasion of the question of the size of wages, or there is pressure with the words "who discusses this at the first communication."
    At the stage of consideration of your candidacy, they are asked to provide a copy of the passport by sending it by mail.
    Under various pretexts, they are asked to send an SMS message.

Remember, you can safely ask the name of the organization, your position and responsibilities. And they must receive direct and understandable answers to these questions. If you have any suspicions, then check on the Internet information about the company whose name you were informed and the contact phone number.
External signs

    The place of the interview is untidy or basement, and the name of the company is written on a shabby plate or printed on sheet A4.
    A place is a half-empty unstructured space for jobs, the number of people in which exceeds jobs. No sign or company name plate.

If you notice austerity or you get dust in your eyes, then you probably won't see a job.
Job interview

    The interview is very massive with a large number of candidates.
    The interview begins with a conversation about success and a dream.
    At the interview, they are forced to fill out a large number of questionnaires, other papers and applications, which are not needed.
    They ask to pay a certain amount, claiming that it is necessary for paperwork, the purchase of educational literature, etc.
    The interviewer promises to personally supervise you and teach you how to make money quickly.
    Inconsistency of information at the interview with previously received.

Keep in mind that you can get up and leave at any time, no one can oblige you to anything.
And further

There are a number of signs by which you can identify an unscrupulous employer:

    The employer delays the signing of the employment contract.
    Lack of any job descriptions and an explicit list of your responsibilities.
    You are immediately entrusted with a complex and responsible task that your predecessor did not complete.
    Fines are imposed on you for ridiculous or far-fetched offenses.

Work.ua encourages you to be vigilant, not to rush to grab at any opportunity and do everything thoughtfully. Easy money does not exist, as well as free cheese.

Interview traps

Misunderstanding Having received the answer to the question, the interviewer can say that he does not understand it. And after your explanation, he may again be something incomprehensible. This is a stress test. You can start to get nervous or even behave aggressively - do not do this. This is part of the game, and you must remain calm. Clarify what is specifically incomprehensible to the interviewer and explain yet, do not lose your temper. Active listener Listening to your answer or comment, the interviewer may be very interested: actively nod; constantly say “yes, yes”, “very interesting”; something to take note of you. Usually in such situations, the interviewer thinks quite the opposite. This means that you are talking too long or the information is unnecessary. Try to put the answer to any question in 1-2 minutes. If you really need to tell a lot - list the main points and say that you can separately give comments on them, if it will be important for employment - you will...

Common mistakes during the trial period

1. Game Rules You should study the features of work in the company and its corporate culture as soon as possible. In some organizations, free communication is on “you”, in others it is more strict and official. Somewhere to linger after work - a generally accepted rule, etc. You must not only learn these features, but also decide for yourself how they suit you. 2. Simultaneous job search If you started work, you should not continue to go for interviews in order to find more employment options. Also, do not update or post your resume on employment sites. The HR manager of the company will easily find it, besides it is simply dishonorable. 3. "In a strange monastery ..." Each employee brings some changes to the company and affects its work. But you should not criticize any work processes during the trial period and too defend your opinion. There will be more appropriate moments for this. 4. Activities of the company You can regularly fulfill your duties throughout t...
