The Clark Builders Group of Companies (CBGOC) is aware of individuals claiming to represent Clark Builders to international job seekers. We have documented false offers of employment and fraudulent interview requests that have been made without the knowledge or approval of the CBGOC. These activities constitute recruitment fraud and the intent is to extract money from applicants in return for the fraudulent interview, employment offer or work visa.
For clarification, the CBGOC never contacts job seekers with unsolicited offers. We also never require payment for any reason upon acceptance of an offer of employment, nor do we request personal information from any individual prior to their acceptance of a formal offer of employment.
We strongly encourage all individuals to carefully scrutinize all recruitment communication and to not respond to unsolicited job offers. CBGOC asks that individuals report any suspicious or fraudulent activity to the proper authorities.
