Bare with me on this.
My friend applied for a job with the company Cognizant two weeks ago. Yesterday morning she had a Skype interview with them, only they didn't video chat. It was all through text. Which to me was strange. Anyway, they ended up offering her a position with a starting pat of 29.75/hr
She finished the interview and the lady said she would email the responses to HR. This morning she got a startup check from Cognizant for 5,000$
They told her she would be working from home until their offices in our area were open and functional.
This all seems scammy to me and I am concerned about her. I'm not sure where to post this, but I just wanted a second opinion.
Job title is administrative assistant.
Update: the five grand is for her to order the office equipment that they want her to order TODAY. I'm worried they're going to send her this morning and then have her pay for all this equipment and then try and say she owes them for it somehow.
