A diary based on my latest attempts to get a job; this time in Munich. I'm an engineering graduate (and chartered engineer) with more than 10 years' experience in IT. Over five of these years have been spent in team leading and project management roles both in the UK and abroad.

"Interesting" Job of several weeks

Total Oil and Gas are recruiting big time, apparently and are advertising in LinkedIn, as well as other places.

I won't copy the advert from LinkedIn as it may breach their copyright but in it readers are asked to contact a Dr. Morgan Phawoski(PhD) emailing recruitment@careers-total.co.uk

Except that Total uses another domain name.

Plus, on their web site, Total warns about fake recruiters (though I can't find the link again). And a site called Complaints Board also has entries about similar adverts or emails from the same person.

If you search on his name up appears what looks like a Xing.com page, inviting you to log in to see his details. Except that the URL is not that of Xing.

Hmm.

I sent an email to LinkedIn support questioning the veracity of the advert but have as yet not received a reply and have seen the advert re-posted.
