Please be aware that sophisticated recruitment phishing campaigns can use institutional platforms to send employment advertisements purporting to be from non-profit organizations like CAMFED. The fraud could be conducted using an organization’s brand and/or names of staff members. E-mails can be sent from fake web domains that may look similar to an organization’s. Carefully check all information and use trusted sources to verify the information given. Please note: - When CAMFED recruits externally, all jobs are advertised on our website www.camfed.org. - CAMFED will never ask individuals benefiting from its programs (the women and girls we serve) for financial contributions of any kind. - CAMFED will never request job applicants to pay a processing fee for recruitment purposes.
