Recruitment Scams and How to Protect Yourself
There has been a recent increase in recruitment scams in Switzerland. We take this very seriously and are doing our best to solve this. The current scams are text messages (all platforms including facebook) offering employment, sent from somebody pretending to work for the Nordwand Group. Please note, we have not had a data breach and all reported cases have been from people with whom we have no connection and no data.
The following points can help you ensure you are dealing with an actual employee of the Nordwand Group:
-
We only make first contact with candidates and clients using email, employment social media platforms (e.g. LinkedIn) and/or by calling (not texting) from Swiss landlines and mobiles. Please note, we never make first contact via SMS, Facebook Messenger, Signal, WhatsApp or Telegram or any other platform. We will only contact you using texts (SMS or Whatsapp) is we already have a working relationship with you.
