877-731-7747

What's up with this number? I got a text on my cell telling me to call, but I want to find out about it first.

I don't know, I got one too though. Who is it?

This number is a part of Careers Inc, which is a verification service
for employers for hundreds of different job boards. I'm a
representative of Careers and would like to clarify why you're getting
a text from us on this number.

We receive a large quantity of resumes for thousands of positions
across the country, and our job is to verify that your contact
information is correct. Employers use Careers because they get such a
massive response to job postings. It's very hard for any company to
sort through interested applicants - people are not reachable, their
phone numbers are disconnected, or their email is invalid or typo'd on
their resume. This leads to frustration on both ends, where applicants
receive no response and employers get bad contact info for an
otherwise qualified individual.

Careers attempts to contact applicants to confirm that their
information is correct - if it is not, then we help them to correct it
and update the employer on the applicant's status.

We do not ask for any sensitive information such as SSN. We do not
charge for our service. We will never ask you for anything beyond
confirming what's already in your resume on file.

I received a text to call this number. I do not trust things that text me to tell them to call a number, especially an 877 number. If an employer wants to contact me badly enough, they should call me from their own personal number and talk to me on their own. I have gotten a call from an 877 number as well and have ignored it due to past posts about 877 numbers being bull crap. As I mentioned... if you want to get ahold of me bad enough, call me personally from a local number that I recognize. Otherwise, stop wasting my time.

I called it back, they want you to further your education.  I applied for a couple jobs online, obviously fake jobs.  In my eyes, they are just telemarketers of some sort.
