Google Recruiter impersonation scam on Linkedin- Grapevine

So, I am looking for senior level jobs and  usually referall /direct connects have worked better. But today I had to upload my resume on shine.com 'cuz the opening on linkedin, redirected me there.
Within an hour I got a call from an agency called evolution planner and what seemed like a young boy in an animated voice asking if am looking out etc. What spiked my curiosity was him asking if am looking outside India, which is not usual opening question.
Now its usual for consultants to call so it was sll okay till he said there will be a small fees. Now again, I know of senior folks who deploy headhunters and I was like maybe these people have got my profile from somewhere and are looking to source business from me. I wouldn't have paid but I entertained to see where this is going. He said Microsoft, Oracle etc have shortlisted me. Funny given I have worked in startups in marketing ( and not even tech ) so don't knw whats the skillset match. Anyway he told me to create an account and my final red flag was when he said site name like www Dot..lol who says it like that. I cut the call pretending am getting another call and he can call me later. He asked me to confirm since he will have to hold the client for me. Lol
It's happened with me for the 1st time and unfortunately searching this company name doesn't throw any negative reviews either. But this is a scam,right ? Also since when did google start recruiting like this.
Have you heard of this company?
Also have you had such experiences.?

Recruitment scam and spam

Brand Marketing Manager

I recently enabled open to work on my profile,
Got immediate responses from recruiters,
They show so much interest saying “ Your skill set, experience is amazing and this is exactly what we are looking at our company, please share your resume and we can take this forward “
I get all hyped and share my resume, and I get no response back. Almost 5-10 recruiters have ghosted me like this.
I follow up multiple times asking for any update. And I get no response. They don’t even say “ I have forwarded your profile to the HM and we’ll get back to you “ 

Some of my friends are also facing the same issue.

I’m a product designer with 11+ yoe, if anyone here can refer me it will be really helpful 🙏

Linkedin recruiters ghosting

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

Hello all,

This incident happened with one of my friend. She is looking for a job change and these people contacted her saying she is selected for interview with Godrej and Boyce. His name is Aniket Archarya 
His linkedin profile 
https://www.linkedin.com/in/aniket-acharya-054647108

She passed all the rounds which were only for 15 mins( she appeared for data analyst role). He called her today stating she performed well and but her Power Bi skills are not upto the mark but still the management decided to go ahead with her. He mailed her the offer letter and but there was no joining date mentioned. When inquired he told her that she has to do one certification in order to get onboarded which costed around 17,994 INR. This is the portal of the course http://deep-learning.school

Since she found this strange she investigated in linkedin contacted other HRs who have verified badge. They confirmed its a scam. 

To all out there beware of these frauds masking themselves as HRs

Lately recruiters have started messaging me on linkedin with opportunities in their company when I ask for JD they never reply back, is this normal behaviour? Am I asking too much?

I am applying for Roles in Linkedinwhich I was qualified well (may be I am overhyping myself) but I am not getting shortlisted for any of the roles applying.

Is there anything I should do instead of just applying ?

I have been applying via LinkedIn Easy Apply from a long time but never got any response. Any HRs who know where does the CV land after applying there? 

Has anyone ever got a call via LinkedIn Easy Apply? If yes, which company please comment.

LinkedIn Easy Apply Scam?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

she texted this on LinkedIn, is this legit ?

Senior Software Engineer

if you search for jobs, top 20 results are promoted job ads from top startups and service company. Its like every company knows to play the game at linkedin now. Keep a 2-3 fake jobs to let aware market that they are hiring but they are actually not. 

even machine learning engineer is get 10 promoted jobs with 100 applicants even for that.

what is your experience on linkedin related to job nowadays.?

LinkedIn jobs are simply psyops by companies

Digital Accessibility Technologist

I have been applying jobs through LinkedIn recently and 100% of them returned back as rejection with the same template message. That made me wonder that recruiters might be pressing a "Reject" button and LinkedIn would send me the subsequent mail. So my question.. 
Can anyone who got hired via "Easy Apply" tell their story or any recruitor tell what's the best way to catch attention?

What does it look like on the other side of LinkedIn's "Easy Apply"?

I happen to finally go for premium since I ran out of invites. And bro I’ve been bombarded with job suggestions left and right . I have applied for 3-4 hours straight, just can’t believe it.
Just a day back my feed was dry as a desert.
So if you’re looking for jobs go for Premium at least till you get few offers

LinkedIn premium is nuts

Let’s expose cringeworthy fake posts, people and jobs from LinkedIn/Twitter

Exposed Linkedin fake posts, jobs, profiles.

Lately I have been getting a lot of DMs from TA from various companies on linkedin. They would start the conversation with something like “We are really impressed with your profile and work you are doing …” 
Then they proceed to ask for contact details and resume and then they just vanish out of thin air. 

It’s not that I have a bad resume because whenever I start to actively look for a job I get interview calls right away from actual HRs who are hiring.

Is this some shady practice that TA people have been following to build their roster/database for different job roles that they frequently hire for.

Getting ghosted by Talent Acquisition folks on Linkedin

Is it legitimate that recruiting specialists at Korn Ferry supporting Google are reaching out on LinkedIn(without even setting status as open to work)?

Could anyone working at Google or the people who got interviewed for Google via Korn Ferry share their experiences?
