When an advert arrives through a forwarded message, treat it as a lead. Find the original vacancy and confirm the employer, closing date and submission channel before sending personal documents.
Trace the advert to its source
Search the employer’s official website for the job title or reference number. For Tanzanian public service recruitment, start with the Public Service Recruitment Secretariat. If a social post and the official notice disagree, follow the latest official instruction or ask through a published contact.
Check for requests that deserve a pause
The FTC’s job scam guidance describes schemes involving advance payments, fake checks and demands for personal data. If a recruiter asks you to pay to secure a role, stop and verify independently. Avoid contact details supplied only in the suspicious message.
Keep a record before you submit
Save the original advert and note the closing date and submission route. Provide only the documents requested through a verified channel. If you cannot confirm the vacancy, move on to a source you can check.
