Fake Job Post Alert! Getting Recruiter’s Post Offering Rs 5-10 LPA Jobs at Nestle? Here’s What the Company Says News24 –

Nestlé India has alerted job seekers about a fraudulent recruitment scam falsely offering high-paying jobs at the company. The scam, which promotes salaries between ₹5 lakh and ₹10 lakh per annum, has been confirmed as fake by Nestlé India’s Chairman and Managing Director, Suresh Narayanan. He warned young professionals to stay cautious and avoid responding to such misleading job advertisements, which often appear as pop-ups or on fake websites.

How Did The Scam Come To Light?

The scam came to light after a LinkedIn user, Pooja Dayal, who identifies as a recruitment specialist, shared a suspicious job posting that caught Nestlé India’s attention.

“Hi All, We are hiring for Multiple Positions in Nestle. Virtual Interview on 17th to 18th March 2025 | Timing:- 04:00 PM,” she wrote.

Nestle’s Response

In response, Narayanan called the advert ”fake” and issued a statement.

“This advert for Nestle India 🇮🇳 jobs is completely fake, untrue and grossly misleading. Appealing to all young and aspiring talent NOT to respond to this or any advert that might pop up! As the CMD for Nestle India 🇮🇳, I don’t want any youngster from anywhere to be duped by the lofty offers made! Hence please do not respond, and the reason I am personally intervening is my concern for you,” Narayanan wrote on LinkedIn.

In response to the job scam, Nestlé India reassured job seekers that it only hires through official channels. The company clarified that all recruitment is done either directly through its official website or in collaboration with trusted, authorized recruitment agencies. Nestlé urged applicants to verify job postings carefully and avoid falling for fraudulent offers.

“Nestle India recruits candidates either directly or through duly authorized reputed recruitment agencies in the industry. Our recruitment agencies do not charge any amount from the candidates either before or after the completion of the recruitment process. We request aspiring candidates to be cautious as Nestle India does not authorize any recruitment agency to directly issue an ‘Offer Letter’ for employment,” the company wrote in a post on LinkedIn.
