Please be aware that Cohesity and its subsidiaries do not conduct interviews by email or text, and will never request payment as a condition for applying for a position or receiving an offer of employment. These scam operators may also ask for your personal information (name, address, birthdate, social security number, etc.) which you should not provide to them. If you have been a target of such a scam, you should report it by contacting the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (see this FTC posting for further details: https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/job-scams ) the office of your state Attorney General, or the government agency responsible for investigating matters such as this where you reside.

Any submission of an unsolicited resume to our resume database, directly to Cohesity hiring managers, or by other means will be considered gratis and no recruiting fee will be paid if an unsolicited candidate from a third-party recruiter is subsequently hired.
