the bent mast · Victoria, BC · $22.00 hourly

Verdict

The Bent Mast is a verified, established restaurant in Victoria with a confirmed real business address and reachable website. The posting includes legitimate job details (NOC code, full-time permanent role, reasonable salary for a cook position, detailed support programs). However, two minor fraud signals are present: a generic email domain (Outlook) for the contact and a request for physical mail resume submission, which are somewhat unusual for a modern restaurant posting but not uncommon for smaller establishments. These signals are outweighed by strong verification of the employer's legitimacy.
