Hello People,
I received a verbal offer letter from Oracle. I said yes and things moved on. BGV was initiated as well. BUT, Yesterday I received a call from the hiring manager that Oracle is putting hiring freeze, so they are not able to release offer letter as 1 approval was still pending from the VP. He said I will be contacted once freeze is over. Do you think I still have any chances of getting in once the freeze is lifted and how long the freezes are in Oracle ? Oracle

There are a loooot of people asking for free work or a free test project but then ghost once it's done. I fell for it once but realized it was just a crummy tactic to get lots of free work out of people
They're there for sure, but there are signs to look for. Look for the number of jobs they've done and whether payment method is verified, for example. See how many jobs they've actually paid out. It's tough to potentially miss out on someone who is just new to Upwork, but it's also tough to get scammed. 🤷🏼♀️
Yeh they did like a chat interview and sent me an offer but all outside of Upwork. And then the website of the company posted that their were scams happening in their name. I sent an email to that company to verify but have not heard back.
Nooooo. Are you?!?! I have never once had that problem. But I guess I canm't be surprised, there are scammers everywhere. You can never be too cautious.
