Where I Saw Their Listing, or How They Found Me
I saw a posting on Careerbuilder.com for an Operations Officer. I applied, got an offer of employment (20 hours per week for 72,800) and never had an interview of any kind.

Why I Think It's a Scam
I have never had anyone offer me a job working 20 hours a week, for 72,800 annually, without an interview or two or three. They don't really say what you will be doing or where. I sent an email to the address provided trying to get more information and clarity. Believe me I wish I could work 20 hours a week for 72,800 USD annually. The company address is in Spain, the offer doesn't even state USD for the salary.
Advice
- If it is too good to be true, it probably is.
- Never sign any employment papers without knowing what you are going to be doing, expectations, who will you report to.
- Make sure you verify the currency being discussed (especially with companies that are headquartered overseas.
