How To Be A Safe Internet User

CareerOne is dedicated to providing the safest possible environment for you to search for jobs and manage your career. To assist with that goal, we ask that you keep a few simple security precautions in mind when evaluating job postings on CareerOne and job opportunities that you may receive unsolicited via email.

For example, it's possible that you may encounter fraudulent job opportunities when searching for jobs online, or you may receive fraudulent email that has had the sender's address forged to make it appear as if it came from CareerOne. Such practices are a violation of CareerOne's Terms of Use and may be a criminal violation.

Regrettably, all online companies are susceptible to occasional scams. While CareerOne makes every effort to prevent this abuse, it is not immune to such activity.
