About This Webinar
Scammers are increasingly targeting early-career professionals — and fake job postings, fraudulent recruiters, and false opportunities are becoming more difficult to identify. These scams appear on platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed, and other popular job boards.
As a master’s student, you may feel pressure to find a job or internship quickly. Scammers take advantage of this. Knowing how to recognize a job search scam can protect your personal information, your money, and your time.
Join Beyond Graduate School for this webinar where you’ll learn how to identify warning signs in job postings and recruiter messages, and what steps to take if something does not seem right.

📹 The webinar will be held via Zoom and will be recorded. Advanced registration is required.
