To whom it may concern;

I am new to applying for jobs via Craigslist so I am not sure
what exactly you would need to begin the application process other
than a resume. However, I am hesitant to send one through email
without a company name or something to prove that this is an actual job and not an affiliate marketing scam. Please reply with at least a company name, job description and possible attachment of an application and I will be happy to reply with a resume and completed application if provided. I do feel as if I am qualified for the position in which you are seeking to fill and would appreciate the opportunity to apply.

Thank you,


This is what i received in response today.

Hello Amye,

We would like to thank you for sending your resume to Newman Careers & Partners. After reviewing your initial credentials, I think you could possibly be a great fit for our company.

Our Human Resource manager would like to schedule an interview with you before she leaves for vacation early next week. You need to complete the pre-interview screening before we can schedule an interview, which can be found at http://job-in-newman.info or the career link on our homepage. Your applicant code is 280244.

Please write down your code, as that is the only way you can gain access to your application and employee profile. Once you complete your screening someone from HR will contact you within 72 hours to schedule an interview.

Respectfully
Robert Anderson
