Warning: false job offers sent via e-mail
Some people have received what appeared to be genuine offers of employment from ABB via e-mail but which turned out to be fraudulent.

"Phishing", as this type of fraud is known, is an e-mail scam targeting many businesses worldwide. The senders are generally trying to obtain personal and/or bank information. They may also be trying to extract money for processing job applications or costs related to "work permits" or "visa working papers".
In other cases, candidates have been asked for payment to secure interviews or guarantee a job.
These e-mails can look authentic, with a company logo or convincing personal details taken from social networking pages. However, these e-mails have no connection with ABB, nor do we use these methods as part of the recruitment process.

If you believe you may have received a fraudulent recruitment offer, you may learn more about this increasingly common scam and report this incidence on the Federal Trade Commission website.

What are genuine offers from ABB like?
Qualquer oferta genuína da ABB será sempre antecedida por uma candidatura formal e entrevistas presenciais.

Não solicitamos detalhes bancários até que o contrato tenha sido assinado pelas duas partes. Além disso, nos Estados Unidos, só solicitamos detalhes bancários após uma oferta ter sido oficialmente aceita e o colaborador ter começado a trabalhar.

Nós nunca solicitamos dinheiro aos candidatos a emprego.

How do I know if a job offer I have received is fraudulent?
As coisas a serem observadas incluem:
  • O e-mail ou suposto contrato faz mau uso do idioma e/ou contém erros ortográficos.
  • Ele é proveniente de um endereço de e-mail com um nome de domínio diferente do esperado (por exemplo, uma suposta oferta de emprego da Irlanda vinda de um endereço de e-mail russo ou do Oriente Médio). Ou ele vem de um endereço de e-mail que não pertence à ABB (por exemplo, yahoo ou gmail.com)
  • A oferta foi recebida através das mídias sociais, tais como o Facebook.
  • Se uma oferta de emprego da ABB é inesperada, então provavelmente é falsa.
