How to Identify Legit Remote Jobs and Avoid Scams

Remote jobs are growing, but so are scams. Fake recruiters often target job seekers with unrealistic salaries, quick offers, and requests for money. Knowing warning signs can save you from financial loss and stress. Legit companies never ask for payment for interviews, training, or job offers. Always verify domains, company pages, and employee profiles on LinkedIn. Be careful with WhatsApp-only communication and generic email IDs. Prefer trusted platforms, and insist on written communication with proper offer details. If something feels rushed or secretive, pause and verify. A real remote job will have clear processes and transparent documentation.
