Recruitment Caution – Clarification in Public Interest
Recruitment Caution
Have you received an email offering you employment at GSR or one of its group companies?
This may be a fake job offer, sent from a fraudulent email ID masked to look like an authentic GSR ID, or a deceptive domain name similar to GSR.
Be aware and alert:
- GSR will never ask for money from the candidate at any stage of the recruitment process
- GSR will address job applicants with proper salutations including the last name (not with generic greetings)
It has been brought to our attention that certain unscrupulous elements are sending out false emails purporting to be from GSR. The emails ask the recipient to appear for a face-to-face interview for a job opening with GSR and to deposit a certain amount as a refundable interview security in a designated bank account. The emails are falsely stated to be from officials of the HR Department of GSR.
GSR has not sent out any such emails. Please note that GSR as a policy, does not collect any money as a pre-employment requirement. GSR and its affiliate companies bear no responsibility for amounts being deposited / withdrawn therefrom in response to such emails.
These communications may carry the ID or domain name of GSR (or a deceptively similar name) to make it look authentic. GSR is taking appropriate steps to tackle the issue.
As a vigilant jobseeker, please look out for the following pointers to identify the fraudulent emails:
- GSR does not ask for any money from the candidate at any stage of the recruitment process
- A fraudulent email may mention the bank account number of an individual or the account details would be given upon calling up on the number mentioned in the fraudulent mail. In any case, the bank account would not be in the name of GSR.
- GSR letters will address job applicants with proper salutations including the last name (not with generic greetings)
- Please check if you receive calls from the GSR registered numbers or from a private number
We advise candidates not to respond to any fraudulent emails and not to make any payments. In case of any doubt please contact report@gsr-inc.com or +91-44-6640-2499 or +1-925-249-2200.
