Pilot Resume stockpiling

There appears to be an organization on social media advertising as a place for all things aviation related with a large focus on jobs for newbies in Australia, posting jobs for low hour pilots.

This would be all great if these were true and the positions actually did exist, however this is not the case. One post boldly claimed there was a new academy opening in NSW which would teach 600 asian students per year, with an encouragement for instructors to send through their resumes, but with no location or company details given.

There now appears to be somewhat genuine looking ads looking for grade 2 and grade 3 instructors but again no specifics, no company names, no email address for said company CP/CFI.

All this appears to taking advantage of naive low hour pilots and many need to be aware that you are sending a lot of you're private details to an undisclosed source who could use your information to their advantage and may tarnish your profile.

Please take caution when sending your resume with all your personal details, hours, ARN, qualifications etc when you don't know the intentions of recipient.

And finally,if its too good to be true, it probably is
