Attention Chainlink Labs Job Seekers:
Fake recruiter scams have become increasingly common on LinkedIn, especially in the Web3 space. All official Chainlink Labs recruiters should have the Verifications symbol next to their name. When you click the symbol you will see a workplace verification that indicates, “Chainlink Labs: Verified using work email.”
If you are contacted by a LinkedIn profile that does not carry this verification but claims to be a recruiter with Chainlink Labs, we recommend you do not interact with these individuals, e.g., responding to requests for additional information, clicking on links, filling out forms, etc. We appreciate your continued collaboration in helping to keep our community and ecosystem safe.
