Recruitment Fraud Alert
We’ve learned that scammers are impersonating Commvault team members—including HR and leadership—via email or text. These bad actors may conduct fake interviews and ask for personal information, such as your social security number.
What to know:
- Commvault does not conduct interviews by email or text.
- We will never ask you to submit sensitive documents (including banking information, SSN, etc) before your first day.
- Commvault recruiters may contact prospective candidates through LinkedIn and other professional networking platforms regarding career opportunities. If you are unsure whether a recruiting communication is legitimate, review the profile to ensure they have a badge verifying them as a Commvault employee.
