By Sulaimon Salau
Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL), operator of the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) and CNL Joint Venture has urged Nigerians to disregard false recruitment information in several media and online channels purportedly by CNL and Chevron Corporation, advertising job positions and offering job slots for sale.
The company, in a statement by General Manager, Policy, Government & Public Affairs, Olusoga Oduselu, said these fraudulent job offers have reportedly been circulated through emails, text messages and phone calls by individuals purporting to be staff or representatives of CNL and Chevron Corporation.
He stated: “CNL hereby dissociates itself from such individuals and false job adverts and offers published in any web site, email, poster, handbill or any other medium. CNL did not make or authorize such false publications.
“Members of the public are hereby notified that CNL does not and will not require applicants to make any payment for processing any job application. Job offers requesting candidates to pay money, at any point during the recruitment process, are fraudulent and are not from CNL.
“CNL does not solicit job applications or initiate recruitment processes through emails, posters, handbills, text messages, social media, or phone calls,” he stated.
