Three Items

1)  Craigslist Warning:  Just a "heads up" that a recent Craigslist ad, which I advertised on this blog, appears to be a scam.  It was for an medical secretary/front desk position at a "busy accupuncture office."  Some respondents to the ad received an email in reply, asking them to provide information about their bank account for "direct deposit." 

Obviously, Craigslist is a valid source for potential jobs.  Otherwise, I wouldn't list openings from that site.  We have even had students earn legitimate positions found on that site.  But there are also "sharks" advertising on there, fishing for your information.  So you must be careful.  Do not disclose your bank account information, social security information, etc to someone who hasn't interviewed you in person (at a legitimate place of business) and offered you the job.  Sending your resume to apply through Craigslist isn't all that problematic as most of the information on your resume can probably be obtained online anyway (your name, address, phone number, etc). 

This doesn't mean you need to--or even should--stop using Craigslist as a job seeker's tool.  It just means you need to be wise and vigilant in its use.  Trust your common sense!
