There is a website—npaworldwide.asia—that is redirecting to npaworldwide.com. This website is not affiliated with NPAworldwide in any way and has been reported to multiple agencies. The person who created this domain is advertising open job roles on Shine.com. These appear to be phony job posts that are an attempt to swindle unsuspecting users to share banking information and other sensitive personal details, as well as monetary payments.
International Staffing Consultants is a member of NPAworldwide which is a global network of privately-owned executive recruitment firms. Recruitment firms join NPAworldwide to increase the scope of service they provide to their employer clients. We have a job board for our members and also advertise job openings on behalf of our members with a variety of job aggregator sites. These jobs appear under the NPAworldwide umbrella, but we are not the hiring entity. We require these to be real (current) job openings, and for our member to have a direct relationship with the hiring company.
Please be aware of the following:
- NPAworldwide is a small-staff organization with minimal hiring needs within our direct workforce.
- NPAworldwide members are prohibited from using our name as their own business name. They own their own recruitment firms and advertise/post using their own business name.
- NPAworldwide does not directly approach job seekers with employment opportunities.
If you are approached by anyone from npaworldwide.asia claiming to be representing NPAworldwide, please proceed extremely carefully. Do not share bank details, passport/ID photos, or respond to any requests for cash. Do not engage on WhatsApp or other social channels.
Reputable recruitment firms do not charge job seekers to use their services. Fees are paid by the hiring organization. Job seekers should never be asked to pay for pre-employment training, verification, or anything else. If there is a need for a job seeker to provide photo identification or bank details for direct deposit of payroll, that would happen directly through an employer-affiliated tool, not on WhatsApp or any similar social media channel.
