Chevron Nigeria Limited (“CNL”), operator of the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (“NNPCL”) and CNL Joint Venture,says it has received reports of false recruitment information in several media and online channels purportedly by CNL and Chevron Corporation, advertising job positions in CNL and offering job slots for sale.
These fraudulent job offers have reportedly been circulated through emails, text messages and phone calls by individuals purporting to be staff or representatives of CNL and Chevron Corporation,the company said in a statement signed by its General Manager,Policy,Government & Public Affairs,O.S Oduselu.
The company dissociated itself from such individuals and false job adverts and offers published in any web site, email, poster, handbill or any other medium. CNL did not make or authorize such false publications.
The company notified the public that it does not require applicants to make any payment for processing any job application.
The job offers requesting candidates to pay money, at any point during the recruitment process, are fraudulent and are not from CNL,the statement said.
It added:”CNL does not solicit job applications or initiate recruitment processes through emails, posters, handbills, text messages, social media, or phone calls.
“Job seekers are advised to always check the company’s website at: http:/www.careers.chevron.com, and the national newspapers for job advertisements from CNL.
“CNL will not respond to enquiries about fraudulent advertisements and job offers”.
