Job Seekers: Protect yourself against identity theft

Please be aware there are instances of identity thieves posting Takeda-branded jobs and posing as employees in an attempt to steal personal information from job seekers. They visit job-related websites and invite candidates to online chats. During the chat, they press job seekers to provide bank account information and personal identification numbers. If you receive unexpected offers of employment from people claiming to work for Takeda, we suggest you do not correspond with them. Do not click any hyperlinks and do not open any attachments.

At Takeda, we do not ask for personal financial information during telephone, in-person or video interviews nor do we charge job seekers fees as part of the recruitment process. Takeda's recruiting correspondence will be sent by a recruiting representative with @takeda.com e-mail address – not @gmail.com, @yahoo.com, @hotmail.com or any other e-mail domain service.

We are investigating ways to mitigate or stop this scheme. If you have concerns related to this issue, consider the following actions: 1) If in the U.S., place a freeze on your credit reports: https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0497-credit-freeze-faqs;

2) file a complaint with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/;

and/or 3) file a report with your local law enforcement agency immediately.
