HawkSEM will never ask for payments, personal purchases (like laptops), or sensitive personal information (e.g., Social Security number) during the hiring process. We also do not contact candidates via messaging platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Telegram. All interviews are conducted through virtual meetings, and communication will only come from an @hawksem.com email address or an InMail message from a recruiter at HawkSEM. If you're asked for anything outside this process, it may be a scam.
