user support technician

OMIKAN TECHNOLOGIES INC. · Delta, BC · $38.00 hourly

Verdict

OMIKAN TECHNOLOGIES INC. appears to be a legitimate company with a reachable website and matching business/location verification. However, the posting exhibits a critical red flag: applicants are instructed to mail physical resumes to a residential property (a 4-bed house) rather than a commercial office address. Combined with the requirement to mail physical materials for a software/technical support role, this pattern is strongly indicative of fraud or deceptive hiring practices, pushing the posting into the HIGH risk band.
