Has anyone received a “job offer” from Aptar Pharma? It seems genuine, but nowadays I don’t trust these things. I had received the Penguin House one and fell for it.

Your feedback is welcome!

Thank you,

Ana

Ana,

All of these "job offers" are scams, period. It doesn't matter which company it supposedly comes from, it's a scam. They allegedly come from publishing houses, pharma companies, IT companies, and others. They're always scams. Do you seriously think any company is going to email translators and offer them a translation or editing position based on a directory profile and an interview in Google Hangouts?
