Approved Snap contact channels
Start from a channel you can independently verify.
- Public website: https://snap-recruitment.io, including its job application and staffing-request forms.
- General email: info@snap-recruitment.co.uk.
- Telephone: 01332 325 360.
- Existing-account portals: use the sign-in destination reached from this website, rather than a link supplied by an unknown sender.
What a safe work-finding process will not ask for
Some requests should make you stop immediately.
- Payment to Snap for finding or trying to find you work.
- Your email, banking, portal or GOV.UK password.
- Gift cards, cryptocurrency or a transfer to "secure" a vacancy.
- Sensitive identity, immigration, licence, bank or health documents through an unapproved social account or unsolicited message.
- Remote access to your phone or computer.
- A rushed decision that prevents you checking the company, role or contact route.
UK employment agencies cannot charge work-seekers for work-finding services. Optional services have separate rules and cannot be made a condition of finding work.
Recognise warning signs
One sign may have an innocent explanation; several demand verification.
- The sender address or link differs slightly from the published domain.
- The role was not discussed or applied for, yet an immediate offer is promised.
- Pay, hours or location are unusually vague while money or documents are urgent.
- The contact refuses a call through the published office number.
- You are asked to move quickly to a private messaging account.
- An attachment or sign-in page arrives unexpectedly.
Use the five-step verification check
Do not use the suspicious message itself to verify the sender.
- Stop replying and do not open further attachments.
- Type snap-recruitment.io into your browser yourself.
- Check whether the role is published, while remembering that not every legitimate conversation starts from a live advert.
- Call 01332 325 360 or email info@snap-recruitment.co.uk using a new message.
- Describe the sender, channel, role and request without forwarding unnecessary sensitive data.
Share documents only when the process is clear
Legitimate recruitment can require evidence, but the request should be explainable.
When a share code is appropriate, provide the code generated for the correct official purpose. A share code is not a password.
