Someone texted me from this number. I want to know more about it before I call them back. What can yall tell me?

I got texted to call this number too.

I called them back after they texted me.  They just asked me a couple of questions--didn't take a lot of time.

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 today and looked up the number and here I am.  I am very upset about this.  I have received 5 emails and now a text over one inquiry about a position on Craigslist.  When I applied to the position, it was with the understanding that I was applying directly to a hiring authority, not anyone else.  Redirecting people to career boards and recruiters to fill recruitment databases and job boards with resumes and personal information is dishonest and misleading.  My husband is a recruiter and he would never mislead anyone in a posting; he very clearly states he is a recruiter.  He also would never send anyone's information anywhere without their permission, unless all personal information was removed.  For all I know you bought my information from someone and now you're going to sell it off to someone else for a higher price now that it's verified information.  Dishonest from the beginning, dishonest to the end.  You people have a lot of nerve!!
