Recruitment Fraud
Authenticity is a core part of our Purpose, values and Vision. Unfortunately, our brand authenticity has been compromised over recent months through a series of fraudulent recruitment schemes.
Recruitment fraud isn’t new but, with scams on the rise and increasing in sophistication, it can be more difficult to identify the inauthentic from the authentic.
If you believe that you have received false documentation from us, please contact us at media@al-ghurair.com – we will be happy to assess the materials for you directly.
