    Before you apply

    • Confirm the requirements and closing date on the original listing (jobmail). SPANi lists vacancies from other sites and may not reflect last-minute changes.
    • Legitimate employers do not charge application, registration or training fees.
    • Don't send your ID or bank details before you have confirmed the employer is real.

    How to spot a job scam

    Applying for permanent roles

    • Mirror the job title and top three requirements in your CV summary and most recent experience.
    • Quantify results where possible: sales targets, cases handled, tickets closed, or team size.
    • Proofread contact details and filenames before submitting — small errors cost interviews.
    • Verify the company and role on the source page before sharing ID copies or banking details.
