IMPORTANT NOTICE: We have recently become aware that individuals not associated with Octagon have fraudulently used our name, our branding, and in some cases, the names of our employees, to solicit applications for fake jobs, to conduct fake job interviews, and/or to make fake job offers. Any request to schedule an interview and any legitimate offer of employment will only come from an authorized representative of Octagon with an email address ending in "@octagon.com". We will never require an applicant to provide sensitive personally identifiable information in order to conduct an interview - if an applicant is asked to upload an image of their driver's license or passport, a social security number, credit card or banking information, it is a scam.

If you have provided personal information in connection with a fake job offer or interview and you are concerned, we suggest that you take appropriate action and contact local law enforcement in your area. Please also reach out to us by sending an email to [e-mail].
