Has anyone heard of this company called English Jobs SE?

I applied for their services and they want me to pay 39 Euros for a workshop and application processing. They say it covers job agencies and visa support.

Has anyone used them? How long did it take to get a job?

Are they trustworthy? I’m applying from Africa and need to decide quickly. Any help is appreciated!

This sounds like an advance fee scam.

Hi /u/Ok-Lingonberry-8261, AutoModerator is here to explain the advance fee scam.

The advance-fee scam comes in many forms: investment offers, money transfers, job scams, and online purchases. But the key is the same — they ask you to pay upfront before you get anything in return. You’ll pay them, but you won’t get anything.

It could be as simple as asking for money before you receive an item, or a complex scheme with fake websites and government agents. Sometimes they’ll disappear after the first payment, or they’ll keep making excuses for why you need to send more money.

If you think you’ve been scammed, try to dispute the payment or do a chargeback. Block the scammer and ignore any further contact.

You should never have to pay to get a job.

Thanks for letting me know.

I checked their website for my region, and it makes no sense at all. It’s just a bunch of job ads poorly translated. Some of the companies listed are hundreds of kilometers away. Most of the jobs require experience or skills that come way before speaking English or any other language.

Definitely a scam, stay away.

Thank you so much! That really helped me make up my mind.
