Is it unprofessional to ask if a job posting on GlassDoor is real?

Yesterday and the day before, I came across 4 job postings on GlassDoor that were fake. I usually call the company to find out the name of the person I should address in my cover letter, and all 3 told me those job postings weren't real.



This morning I found another job posting and I intend to call and ask who I should address my cover letter to, but I also what to make sure it's real. The company website doesn't have a careers section so I can't verify it's authenticity.



Is it unprofessional to ask if the job posting is real? Does it sound like an unusual question?

You can ask indirectly.



Simply say "I have a question about job X for skills Y that I saw posted on Z jobs board."



If they say there is no job X, that they aren't looking for skills Y, or that they don't post jobs to Z, you'll have your answer.



Just make sure you have an actual question about the job if it is real. :)

    You've already identified a good way to do that: Ask who the person of contact is. If the posting is fake they'll tell you as much, and if not, you avoid offending them by asking.

      @nsonline I can't think of a good reason that they would find a call to get more information about an available position to be "unrprofessional".

    • Besides, if you're really concerned about this, use a fake name when calling them so they can't match your call to your application. But unless your question is extraordinarily stupid, they'll have forgotten your name 10 seconds after the call.

    I assume when you say "fake" you mean they are consulting firms that are making the posts. Here's what I found out about weeding these consulting firms out:




    1. If immediately after applying (within 5 minutes) you get a phone call, then you know it's fake

    2. You see the same ad frequently posted or the same post is bumped daily, then you know it is fake. (this might also be an indicator of a real company, but with high turn over rates.)

    3. You notice a company has the word "Staffing" or "Consultant" somewhere in it but no actual company.

    4. After "applying" to the job, you get requests to move 1000s of miles away from your current application area.


    Eventually you'll be a master at spotting "fake" or spam advertisements. I personally think they should make a law on posting these sort of ads on job postings sites but my guess is they are their #1 customers compared to a firm only posting one job.



    But as always try to go to good source for jobs. Don't go on something like craiglist, linkedin (at least random communications you get on a public profile), or ads on your local newspaper. If you do use those sources, be skeptical of the post and pay attention to small clues. Also try to figure out how companies are able to post on the site. Is anyone able to post? Or is it vetted prior to posting?

    I understand your concern, data is now being sold everywhere and people are trying to get there hands on as maximum data as possible, to determine if a job offer is fake or not your can try few simple solutions :




    1. Check the email, recruiters are using professional email to contact others, so, if it's a gmail, and it looks like recruitement-company@gmail.com or something similar then most of the time it's a fake.

    2. Ask about details, don't give your resume just because someone told you he wanted it, ask about the opportunity and more details it's your right, and if it's really an opportunity and you're not interested in it then you can simply decline, otherwise you can then try and apply.

    3. Fast replies, but don't rely on this one too much, if a person replies too fast, that means that he was just waiting for the opportunity to get an answer from someone, most recruiters answer the email after a certain period even if they saw it instantly.

    4. All job offers contain details about the company, if there's no details about the company then something is off and probably it's a fake job offer and that company doesn't even exist.


    You can just check offers, and eventually you'll know how to tell if it's a fake or not just by looking at the offer, but it's not guaranteed 100%, I've seen offers that even someone who hasn't checked a single offer in their lives will say it's fake but in fact they were real offers.



    Good luck.

              2. You see the same ad frequently posted or the same post is bumped daily, then you know it is fake. (this might also be an indicator of a real company, but with high turn over rates.)

              3. You notice a company has the word "Staffing" or "Consultant" somewhere in it but no actual company.

              4. After "applying" to the job, you get requests to move 1000s of miles away from your current application area.


              Eventually you'll be a master at spotting "fake" or spam advertisements. I personally think they should make a law on posting these sort of ads on job postings sites but my guess is they are their #1 customers compared to a firm only posting one job.



              But as always try to go to good source for jobs. Don't go on something like craiglist, linkedin (at least random communications you get on a public profile), or ads on your local newspaper. If you do use those sources, be skeptical of the post and pay attention to small clues. Also try to figure out how companies are able to post on the site. Is anyone able to post? Or is it vetted prior to posting?

              I understand your concern, data is now being sold everywhere and people are trying to get there hands on as maximum data as possible, to determine if a job offer is fake or not your can try few simple solutions :




              1. Check the email, recruiters are using professional email to contact others, so, if it's a gmail, and it looks like recruitement-company@gmail.com or something similar then most of the time it's a fake.

              2. Ask about details, don't give your resume just because someone told you he wanted it, ask about the opportunity and more details it's your right, and if it's really an opportunity and you're not interested in it then you can simply decline, otherwise you can then try and apply.

              3. Fast replies, but don't rely on this one too much, if a person replies too fast, that means that he was just waiting for the opportunity to get an answer from someone, most recruiters answer the email after a certain period even if they saw it instantly.

              4. All job offers contain details about the company, if there's no details about the company then something is off and probably it's a fake job offer and that company doesn't even exist.


              You can just check offers, and eventually you'll know how to tell if it's a fake or not just by looking at the offer, but it's not guaranteed 100%, I've seen offers that even someone who hasn't checked a single offer in their lives will say it's fake but in fact they were real offers.



              Good luck.

                      up vote 6 down vote favorite 1 This program is for count number of partitions of a set with n elements into k subsets I am confusing here return k*countP(n-1, k) + countP(n-1, k-1); can some one explain what is happening here? why we are multiplying with k? NOTE->I know this is not the best way to calculate number of partitions that would be DP // A C++ program to count number of partitions // of a set with n elements into k subsets #include<iostream> using namespace std; // Returns count of different partitions of n // elements in k subsets int countP(int n, int k) { // Base cases if (n == 0 || k == 0 || k > n) return 0; if (k == 1 || k == n) return 1; // S(n+1, k) = k*S(n, k) + S(n, k-1) return k*countP(n-1, k) + countP(n-1, k-1); } // Driver program int ma

                      A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

                      Image
                      0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{
