The Yunlin County Government reminds students who want to work over the summer vacation and job seekers to be cautious to several principles when interviewing; these include asking family and friends to accompany the interview or notifying them of the interview location in advance, verifying whether the information on the application is true, gathering applicant company information, and not paying for expenses for unknown purposes, buying company products, or applying credit cards. Avoid signing contracts, partaking in unlawful activities, drinking unknown beverages, and leaving your identification documents.

Additionally, if the interviewer brings up personal privacy concerns unrelated to the job, the applicant has the right to decline to divulge information that is not necessary for employment.

According to the Yunlin County Police Bureau, job seekers are encouraged to use official job-search websites and never give out their identification documents, passbooks, or ATM cards. To avoid falling victim to fraud, avoid signing a promissory note, an unidentified contract, or serving as a guarantor. The public can contact the 165 anti-fraud hotlines for advice or 110 to report a crime right away if they have any queries.
