Beware of Job Scams
Allied Global Solutions is aware that scammers are using our company name to trick people into applying for jobs that do not exist. These job scams try to get job seekers to provide sensitive personal information, financial information, or payment to the scammer.
What job scams look like

- Fake postings in Facebook groups, Craigslist, or other public boards.
- Work-from-home roles that promise unrealistic pay or instant hiring.
- Messages from free email accounts like Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail.
Allied recruiters will only email job seekers from an @alliedglobalsolutions.ca email address.

Never provide
