Hyundai issues alert on fraudulent job offers

Our Bureau Updated - November 14, 2017 at 04:07 PM.

Hyundai Motor India has cautioned job seekers and the general public against e-mailed job offers being made purportedly by the company against security deposits.

The company has clarified that all its recruitments are done directly and it does not accept or seek any sort of deposit from potential candidates for any position.

“The common modus operandi followed by fraudsters is to ask candidates to deposit partially refundable caution money to make them eligible for the first round of selection. Interviews are then conducted by them posing as company officials, either telephonically or through a face-to-face meeting. Selected candidates are then notified through emails,” said a press release from the company.

Hyundai has requested affected candidates to file a complaint with the local police station the moment any caution money is sought from them either for an interview or for the final placement.
