Important Communication Clarifying our Recruitment Process
We have been informed that fraudulent job offers or communications have been sent via email by persons pretending to work for or act on behalf of CGG. Our logo and/or Company name have been fraudulently used in the exchange of such emails or information.
In the e-mail, prospective employees are told to obtain immigration documents and to make advance payments for immigration costs or any other fees.
To make sure you can distinguish between genuine CGG communications and those being sent fraudulently by people pretending to work for us, please note the following:
- Our email addresses always end in @cgg.com
- As part of our recruitment process:
- No recruitment will be made without a formal interview process and direct contact (including at least one formal face-to-face interview with CGG personnel)
- Candidates are never asked for money transfers or advance payments of any kind, even through agencies, during our recruitment process
- The location of any job position is always communicated to candidates
- All our job opportunities are always posted on our external website: www.CGG.com/careers
