The Kenya Airports Authority has distanced itself from a circular advertising jobs.
The advert had claimed to offer jobs to Kenyans across the country.
Some of the job opportunities in the fake advert included administrative assistants, office messengers, drivers, accountants, planning officers, laboratory technicians and procurement officers.
Others were courier loaders and off loaders, junior payroll managers, ricks managers, cooks, fire brigades, packing officers, security guards, groundsmen, and women. Warehouse managers, data clerk managers as well as a data manager.
“This advert is fake,” KAA said.
Several Kenyans fell victim to the fake advert, with some tagging the authority through social media, asking it to consider them for the positions they had applied for.
Among the requirements in the dismissed advert was that the applicant must be a Kenyan citizen, and possess at least a form four certificate.
It had also asked interested applicants to submit their applications by August 13 and attach their CVs and ID via [email protected], which is not KAA's email address.
While dismissing the advert, KAA said that whenever it is advertising jobs, it alerts Kenyans through https://www.kaa.go.kecareers/, and not through the fake email.
Some tell tale signs the advert is fake is listed jobs required minimum academic qualifications, whereas such positions usually need higher qualifications.
