Times are hard with layoffs everywhere. Job recruitment sites and portals are popping up everywhere and advertising the same jobs listed from the same company. Now obviously if the candidate isn't alert or aware, he/she might fall for the trap of applying to both recruitment agencies and getting sidelined by the real employer. If you are new to the industry, you get even more crap. From a job portal website: IT Internship Program in Sydney CBD
Join this IT internship program (unpaid) and be ripped off by us. You will be given uninteresting tasks while we give more interesting stuff to our other developers, otherwise they will leave our company.
This is a 3 month internship program, 2 hours a day, as long as you pay us the registration fee of $1000 we will be happy, times are tough even for a professional Web2.0 company like us. We will use the other 6 hours in the day for 3 other interns. That's $4000 a day we can make - and that is only on Monday. On Tuesday to Friday we can make another $4000 per day, giving us a cool $20000, thanks to desperate IT interns like you.
Hurry hurry, an offer this good won't last. Source: http://sydney.gumtree.com.au/c-Jobs-computing-IT-IT-Internship-Program-in-Sydney-CBD-Sydney-City-W0QQAdIdZ91558016
