A Warning About Recruiting Scams

Thank you for your interest in Twist Bioscience.

Twist is among several companies recently made aware of a phishing scam where con-artists are posing as recruiters or hiring managers for prominent companies using email, text messages and social media to access personal information of potential applicants.

In this scam, fake recruiters are creating misleading email addresses, conducting remote interviews and extending fraudulent job offers to collect personal and financial information. This type of fraud is normally carried out through online services such as fake websites or through fake email addresses claiming to be from the company. We have reported this illegal activity to the FTC and Internet Crime Complaint Center.



Here’s what you should know to help protect your information from scammers:

• Authentic Twist email addresses have an @twistbioscience.com domain.
• Always take precautions when sharing personal information
• Twist will never require personal banking information in the recruiting/interview process
• Twist will never require an application processing fee or require other payment for recruiting services.

We encourage you to apply for open roles directly through our site.
