Has anyone else noticed that it's becoming harder to tell the difference between a legitimate recruiter and a scammer? Years ago, if a recruiter contacted you, there was generally a level of trust that the opportunity was real. Today, job seekers are receiving emails, texts, LinkedIn messages, and phone calls from people claiming to be recruiters, and sometimes it's difficult to verify what's legitimate. I've seen situations involving: Generic email addresses, Limited company information, Job descriptions that seem copied and pasted, Requests for personal information too early in the process It's unfortunate because it creates skepticism toward legitimate recruiters as well. For those actively job searching: What are some red flags you've learned to watch for?
