Would you trust or should you trust someone who inboxes your Jobcase Inbox under the pretense of Employment? 🤔
👨🏫 A Teachable Moment:
🕵️♀️ I posted this video the Jobcase member Charles Jeffery has since (as of 12.06.2020 on or about 4:30 - 5:00 AM PST) removed his name from my inbox.
Here's the conversation between us:
Dec 4 at 8:39 AM PST: Charles Jeffery says: Hello I am Charles Jeffery, I'm an HR Recruiter from Suncorp. Are you still looking for a Job?
Dec 5 at 4:36 AM PST: Me: Hello Mr. Jeffery, may I ask how long have you been associated with Suncorp and where is its base of operation?
Dec 5 at 7:11 AM PST: Charles Jeffery says: I have been associated with Suncorp for 20 years and its base of operation in Australia
Note: I really could not engage in this conversation, because I was on my way to work. Just a quick check of my messages on Dec 5.
- Dec 6 at 4:24 AM PST: Me: What are the top skills needed? and What is the company culture like? 4:28 PST: Me: And also, does the company have a remote work policy?
Note: Checking other email messages from my Gmail account.
Then I went back to check for his response and to my amazement, he changed his name to "A fellow Jobcaser." 🤔😮 It is wired how when I asked question(s) to him he, in turn, removed his name from the communication (see: video and screenshot in the reply/answer. 😀
In this video an inbox message, Mr.Jeffery claims that he has been associated with Suncorp for 20 years as an HR Recruiter, 🕵️♀️ upon my research I did not find any information as to his employment i.e, HR Recruiter.. and/or any association with Suncorp. I ask you; Am I wrong for asking him any questions?
This just goes to show that there are a lot of fake people who try to trick or scheme people for information.
Note: video may be a little fussy ever at full-screen. (But you can view the conversation above.↑).
@Charles Jeffery aka HR Recruiter... I don't like to respond to people who do not show their face or that does not have a profile, or who speak and act so as to make it appear that something is the case when in fact it is not, or not really what they are represented as being; i.e. used in a game of deception, having no factual basis; just a false representation. 👎👋bye, bye!

For many job seekers, nothing’s more frustrating than the words, “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.”
What if you don’t know anyone? Or simply didn’t recognize the importance of networking until recently.
It isn’t impossible, and you don’t have to be obnoxious to get in front of the right people. In fact, there’s an entire method for introducing yourself to people you’ve never met but would like to know. It’s called sending a Letter of Introduction.
What is a Letter Introduction? It’s a piece of correspondence introducing yourself to someone asking to make their acquaintance and if they’re willing, help you find a job opportunity or meet other people in your desired network. They’re a polite way of getting your name in front of people without infringing on their time.
While we’re on the topic, let’s discuss what a letter of introduction is not. An introduction letter is not your resume, it’s not a cover letter, and it’s not a short story detailing your early life, dreams, and ambitions.
Rather, it’s a brief, clear, and concise explanation of who you are (i.e. a recent graduate, an experienced web designer) and why you are writing. This reason could be that you’re looking for a job or you’re hoping to chat with them to gain some insight into the industry you wish to enter.
Putting It All Together A letter of the introduction allows you to even the playing field when it comes to the game of “who knows who”.
If you can dedicate time to send a letter (or email) of introduction each week to people you’d like to meet, you’re guaranteed a certain percentage replying back – so long as you don’t simply cut and paste the same letter for everyone.
Tip: Whether it’s to land a new job or break into a new industry, and just networking take the advantage of the power of introductory letters. 🤝

🕵️♀️ I'm not too sure but this may be a Possible Scheme 😂🤣😂🤣 ... ijs click the pic and see how he removed his name and added "A fellow Jobcaser", but in the video, you can see the name, Charles Jeffery and you see that the two others have not changed at all. I can not change incoming messages. Oh boy! 😂🤣😂🤣
