Tourism Job Portal is happy to help you find a new job. We offer a convenient and safe environment to find your new job. However, we advise you to think about the following things during orientation and application.

1. Never give out your password or PIN code

Never give out account information such as your login name and password. We will never ask for this information and there is no legitimate reason for anyone else to do so.

2. Protect your personal information

Only provide your personal information to the employer after you have been hired, when signing the contract. Never provide your personal information in advance by email or telephone, such as bank account number, service number, date of birth, copy of passport or ID card. This information should also not be on your CV.

3. Never transfer money to an employer

Never transfer money to a potential employer, there are no legitimate reasons for a payment, big or small. Not for identity check, down payment or promise of bonus.

4. Orientate yourself carefully

Choosing a new job is an important moment. Therefore, orient yourself carefully. Get to know the company in advance, for example via the company's website. Conduct job interviews on location at the company, not just by phone or in a private environment. Consider whether the salary, contractual agreements, working environment, etc. are realistic.

5. Report suspicious behavior

Do you see or hear things that don't seem right during orientation and/or applying? Report this to Tourism Job Portal.
