The trap of recruitment and training on the road to job hunting A well woven workplace scam

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-03-06

Employment, a basic issue related to people's livelihood, has achieved remarkable results in the context of all localities and departments in China making every effort to promote the implementation of employment stabilization policies and actively create employment opportunities. However, in the boom of the recruitment market, some criminals have taken advantage of the eagerness of job seekers and the lack of industry knowledge to weave a workplace called "recruitment and training".

Recently, an in-depth investigation by the "Rule of Law**" found that the phenomenon of "recruitment and training" has been repeatedly banned in the recruitment market, and many job seekers, especially fresh graduates and young people who have just entered the workplace, have become the main victims. With the intention of finding a job and achieving their career aspirations, they are induced to pay high training fees, and in the end, they are not only denied the job they promised, but also burdened with heavy debt.

Taking the experience of Lin Xin, a fresh graduate, as an example, when she applied for an information technology company in Yunnan, she was asked by the other party to participate in practical training and pay a high training fee on the grounds of insufficient skills, and even assumed the repayment responsibility of far exceeding the agreed amount through the loan platform. After the training, the company did not fulfill its promise to arrange work, which put Lin Xin, who was full of expectations, into a predicament.

Many job seekers have reported that they have encountered a similar trap of "recruitment and training", and their methods have emerged in an endless stream, from bait such as "zero threshold, high-paying part-time job" to exaggerating industry prospects and promising high salaries, step by step to lead job seekers into the trap. And when job seekers try to get a refund, they often face many difficulties.

Why can "recruitment and training" succeed? Chen Jing, a psychological counselor in Beijing, pointed out that this kind of ** takes advantage of the psychological needs of job seekers who are eager for affirmation and high returns, and through layers of inducement, they are driven by a better vision for the future and make irrational decisions.

In this regard, legal expert lawyer Chang Sha further analyzed that such cases involve multiple legal relationships, but because the supervision involves labor management, education management, financial management and other fields, the process of rights protection is complex and difficult. She suggested that relevant departments should strengthen the regulation of online recruitment activities, strengthen the review system for information release, and strengthen the connection between administrative licensing and labor security supervision and law enforcement, so as to form a joint regulatory force.

Liu Junhai, a professor at the Law School of Chinese People's University, stressed that in response to the persistent phenomenon of "training loans" traps, it is necessary to create a regulatory mechanism for multi-department coordinated law enforcement, increase penalties for non-compliant institutions, and purify the online recruitment market environment.

Xiong Bingqi, dean of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, proposed that colleges and universities should strengthen job search training and anti-fraud propaganda before students graduate, help students establish a correct outlook on employment and financial management, do a good job in career planning, and avoid falling into the trap of "recruitment and training".

The phenomenon of "recruitment and training" is like a cancer on the road to job hunting, which not only infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of job seekers, but also undermines the normal employment order and social fairness and justice. To this end, all sectors of society should work together to intensify the crackdown on such illegal acts, and at the same time improve the awareness and self-protection ability of job seekers, so as to jointly protect the safety and fairness of the job search road. I was supposed to apply for the job, but I was deceived into spending money on training

Whose fault is it for the existence of the trap? In addition to the crackdown by the regulatory authorities, how can job seekers themselves improve their discernment and avoid becoming the next victim? At the social level, how can we build a more sound employment service system, provide job seekers with real and effective recruitment information, and truly realize the healthy and orderly development of the job market?
