Notice of Fraudulent Job Offers

Unauthorized individuals are using the Arcadia brand in fraudulent job offer schemes. These schemes may attempt to solicit personal information, financial details, or request money from job seekers when pretending to offer employment.

What is Recruitment Fraud?

Recruitment fraud is a sophisticated scam that involves offering fake job opportunities to job seekers. This type of fraud is typically carried out through online services such as false websites, fake emails claiming to be from the company, or text message.

Fraudsters often ask recipients to provide personal information, such as social security number, date of birth, and bank account information. They may also offer fraudulent employment opportunities to applicants and ask candidates to make payments as part of their fake recruiting process, such as arranging travel for in-person interviews with a specific travel agency or purchasing computer and office equipment.

How to Protect Yourself and Identify Recruitment Fraud

  • Arcadia does not ask for any financial commitment or contribution from a candidate at any stage of the recruitment process.
  • Arcadia will not ask candidates to provide payment for training, equipment, or application processing.
  • Arcadia will not ask for your bank account information before your first day of employment, and only for the purpose of setting up direct deposit at your request.
  • All legitimate communications from our recruitment team will come from an official "@arcadia.io" email address.
  • We will not extend an employment offer without a formal interview process. Arcadia conducts interviews via phone calls and Microsoft Teams meetings with video. We do not conduct interviews via Google Hangouts, WhatsApp, or FaceTime.
  • If you are selected for an in-person interview, Arcadia will book and pay for your travel arrangements on your behalf
  • Arcadia uses HireRight to conduct background checks. Legitimate requests for personal information required to complete a background check will come directly from HireRight at the final stages of the recruitment process.
  • Arcadia does not conduct job interviews via Facebook Messenger and does not send job offers via LinkedIn, InMail, Facebook Messenger, or text message.
  • Arcadia does not advertise jobs on NextDoor, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Telegram, WhatsApp, or Instagram.
  • If you have any doubts about the authenticity of a job offer or communication claiming to be from Arcadia, we encourage you to verify by contacting us directly at (781) 202-3600 and selecting option 3.
