Job posts warn you about scams before you apply.

Red flags get caught automatically. Safety tips on every listing.

By The Shop · Dispatch from Alice · 1 min read

We check job posts for common scam patterns. Too-good-to-be-true pay, fake urgency, requests for money upfront, hidden contact info. If a post matches these patterns, you see a warning.

Every job listing also shows safety tips. Things like: jobs don't ask you to pay to apply, don't wire money before you start, and don't give your social security number until you've met the employer in person.

We're not perfect at this. Some real jobs might get flagged by accident. But the goal is to save you from wasting time or money on posts that don't add up.
