Job Seeker Safety

Simple rules to keep yourself safe while applying to local jobs.

Never pay money for a job

No genuine employer asks for a registration, deposit, training or verification fee. If any employer, agent or middle-person asks you to pay to get a job, walk away and report it.

Do not share sensitive details early

  • Never share bank account or UPI PIN with an employer.
  • Do not share Aadhaar or PAN photos before you meet the employer in person.
  • Meet only at the actual business location or a public place.

Check the listing

  • Does the job title, salary and location look realistic?
  • Is the company name recognisable in your area?
  • Are working hours and duties written clearly?
