51 minutes agoAI job scams are booming and I was fooled by one. Here is how to avoid them
A seemingly perfect job opportunity turned out to be a scam, revealing red flags throughout the recruitment process.
First, the use of a Gmail address on the poster raises red flags, as official communication from KURA uses email addresses ending in .go.ke, such as [email protected] . Additionally, the number of advertised positions is exceptionally high, and also the poster omits qualification requirements. It provides no reference to an official source for further details, further undermining its credibility. There is also no evidence of the job advert on KURA's verified X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook page, where such announcements are usually published.
