How to stay safe when applying for jobs.

What every job must have

• Its pay. Every job shows a gross monthly salary range in US dollars. "Competitive" or "negotiable" can't replace it.
• No fees. No employer or recruiter on KaziLink may charge you to apply, attend an interview or get a job. Applying on KaziLink is free.

A job that asks for a fee or a payment number can't be published. Even so, read every advert with care, because we don't verify the companies behind them.

Warning signs of a fake job advert

• You're asked for money: a "registration", "training", "medical" or "processing" fee, or a deposit.
• The pay is far higher than similar jobs, or there's a job offer without an interview.
• You're asked for your passport, ID or bank details before a formal written offer.
• You're told to move the conversation to WhatsApp or a personal email straight away.
• The company has no website, or its email address doesn't match its name.

Report a job

Use the "Report this job" link at the bottom of any job page, or write to [email protected]. Reports come to our team, and we take down jobs that break our rules. When a company breaks them, we can suspend it and take down all its jobs.

If you've already paid someone

Stop paying and keep every message, receipt and phone number. Tell your bank or mobile money provider straight away; they can sometimes stop or reverse a payment. Report it to the police and to us. This is general guidance, not legal advice.
