Protect yourself during the hiring process.
A legitimate employment conversation should be clear about who is calling, what the work involves, and what information is actually needed.
First Choice Employment does not charge candidates
Job seekers are not charged for an assignment, help preparing a resume, or interview preparation. Ontario also restricts temporary help agencies from preventing an assignment employee from accepting work directly with a client.
Expect the assignment details
Before an assignment starts, you should receive key details such as the client, wage, hours, work description, work location, assignment length if known, and pay period information.
Protect sensitive information
- Do not pay to access a job, receive equipment, or move money for an employer.
- Do not share online banking passwords or transfer funds as part of an interview.
- Confirm unexpected messages through info@firstchoiceemployment.ca instead of replying directly.
- Be cautious when a job offer arrives without a real conversation about the work.
