This is a scam site. It is just an attempt to get your information - which they basically initially steal from you by creating a phony job to apply to thus getting your resume, phone, and email which are of value. Total scam. The opt out email address does not work nor does the text message number. Anne is an imaginary person. I'm blocking them with my cell carrier and filing a complaint with the Florida Atty General.

I did not go to the website, but I found it to be strange to receive a text message regurarding a job. I looked up the business and came across these reviews and I also received a text from a so called Deb, funny thing I have a totally different call back number. I am very uncomfortable about this and am considering calling the BBB. If they viewed my resume on the internet i should have been contacted by email. I gave no one my cell phone numer as a form of contact!

Like everyone else, i received a text message (totatally unprofessional) to register at job. Nab etc.
It is not fair for hundreds of people applying and seeking jobs to have phishing, scammers preying on people trying to find a job. Supposely Deb is texting me for a position she is filling in my area.?/ hmmm She text from this number *******890.

A real potential interested company would leave you a voice message to express interest in the resume or call to schedule a legit time to talk. I'm disgusted they have my resume.

Be careful and good luck to all who are job searching.

Jobnab is sooooooo fake! I never bothered with the interview because I knew when i got the (OBVIOUSLY) Indian response it was yet another fake site! If they want to interview, they will take the time to call you, in craigslist I noticed that all the legit jobs actually give a name of a company and a "local" contact number, never give your information, I have a special "Fake" email I use too when I am suspicious and sure enough, that email box is always FULL of garbage!

I recieved a text message that told me to get regestered and they had a job for me.
Now I thought I was already registered at this site along with about 100 other job hunting sites. So as I sat and filled in the info, they told me I was already registered. I logged in and found that they just wanted me to sign up for school. Scam or no scam? You be the judge.

As a recruiter for a company you can imagine my surprise when I found out from applicants that my positions were posted on craigslist. While I do understand that is free advertising for my company I was disappointed to see words spelled wrong as well as positions posted that had already been filled. I would recommend that if you see a job posted contact that company listed rather than go through jobnab. It also seems a bit sneaky to me that they are posting my positions without ever contacting me but rather just copy pasting off my company website.

I had a similar experience to other posters. I found JobNab on Facebook last night and set up an appointment for a phone interview at 8:30 this morning. Upon waking, I had a text reminding me of the appointment. I called at 8:30 and got a recording stating that normal business hours were 9-7. I stayed on hold for 10 min or so, thinking that no small company is perfect and that they may have overlooked changing their voicemail message. No one picked up. I tried again at 9am and the same thing happened. I can now no longer reach either the site or the Facebook app. I agree with the poster who sais the site could be legitimate but they could be in over their heads. I am giving up on JobNab for now.

I scheduled a phone interview half an hour ago. After waiting ten minutes past the scheduled appointment time, I called the phone number for Robert Schaffer (given as the only phone number on the Contact Us page of the site). His mailbox was full, so I was unable to leave a message. I have read additional comments where those who were able to have a phone interview and go on to work for jobnab were not being paid reliably for their work. The bottom line, in my opinion, is this: This is a company which probably has a legitimate business and for some, may be a solid opportunity to earn some extra money working from home. However, the way communications have been handled imply that either jobnab doesn't have the resources to handle itself professionally (I have never heard of a facebook page being set up for any purpose besides networking), or staff sufficient to take on the high volume of responses they are receiving. I'm not willing to write this company off so quickly, but the fact that my interview couldn't take place because the company/Robert Schaffer can't be reached via phone makes me believe they may be in over their head.

When I set up my profile online I scheduled a time to call the office. I was told that this phone call was needed to finish setting up my profile and would take between 5-20 minutes. It took 20 minutes and I was on hold the whole time. I hung up, and I assure you, their office was not closed these were their normal business hours. Anyplace that would tell you to call at a certain time and then not answer is completely unproffesional. The whole time it felt like a scam too, I was contacted by this lady on Facebook whose profile looked fake, she was the one that pointed me toward this crap. I'm gonna ream her a new one.

I called and spoke with a person who I thought was going to help with a job. Just asked a few questions and then switched to hard sales on returning back to school. They will email you a few jobs but they are the same jobs that all the other internet job sites have as well.

Appears to be yet another phishing scam to get your information to send you back to school. Don't these idiots know that even with loans and grants you will still have to pay back the money?

Note to everyone out there. You have probably come to the same conclusion that I have but if a site asks you anything about your education in the initial section where you fill out your information, avoid it as it will be a scam.
