Claim: A post circulating widely on local social media claims that World Vision Zimbabwe is advertising 1,000 (one thousand) job vacancies. The “advert” gives details of vacancies in various departments, and is calling applications for the posts
Is this true or false?
Verdict: False
World Vision in Zimbabwe dismissed the job advert as fake encouraging the public to be weary of fraudsters.
This is one of the many false job adverts that ZimFact has has to flag.
Like the others there are some red flags that should alert the public that the advert is a scam, these include:
Unrealistic intake – this call for applications has over 1000 vacancies
Display of salaries – It is unlikely for companies to publicly display their salary structure in a public call.
Private email address – This advert requests applicants to send their emails to [email protected] most companies like in this case World Vision have work emails
