Fact Check: No, this is not a genuine job advert for CBZ Bank vacancies

Claim:  A job advert widely circulated on Whatsapp claimed CBZ Bank was calling for applications for 1085 vacancies in various departments. Applicants were invited to send their details to a private email address by 10 May 2024.

Is this true or false?

Verdict: False

CBZ Bank officially dismissed the advert as fake and urged the public to be vigilant against scams. In a statement posted on their social media platforms, the bank advised that its job opportunities are exclusively flighted through the company LinkedIn page and job portal.

Furthermore, CBZ clarified that it does not accept job applications or CVs via email.

This is one of the many false job adverts that ZimFact has flagged recently. Like the other fake vacancies, there are some red flags that should alert the public that the advert is a scam, these include:

Unrealistic intake – this job advert has 1085 vacancies

Private email address – This advert requests applicants to send their emails to [email protected]  most companies like in this case CBZ bank have company emails or a  job portal.
