bookkeeper
AWCSIT CONSTRUCTION LTD. · Surrey, BC · $36.60 hourly
Verdict
This posting shows moderate fraud risk. While the employer appears to be a real, registered business (AWCSIT Construction Ltd), several red flags emerge: a location mismatch between the registered Langley address and claimed Surrey posting location, a generic Gmail domain for career applications rather than a company domain, and a requirement to mail physical resumes—unusual for a modern bookkeeping role. The detailed job description and comprehensive accessibility/diversity supports suggest legitimacy, but the address discrepancy and unprofessional contact method (generic email + physical mail) outweigh these positive signals.
- generic_email_domain+18
Contact email is careers.awcsit@gmail.com (free Gmail provider) rather than company domain; suggests unprofessional or potentially deceptive setup
- mail_physical_resume+16
Posting requires mailing physical resumes to a unit address; highly unusual for a modern bookkeeping role and suggests potential scam pattern
- locationMatch_mismatch+15
Company registered in Langley, BC (4049 240 St, Unit #2, Langley, V2Z 2L4) but posting claims Surrey location with different mailing address (18515 53 Ave, Surrey); location mismatch is a moderate red flag
- reasonable_salary-8
$36.60/hour for a bookkeeper in BC is market-appropriate and not an outlier that would suggest fraud
- accessibility_and_diversity_supports-10
Extensive documented support for persons with disabilities, newcomers, youth, veterans, indigenous workers, and mature workers suggests established HR practices and legitimacy
- detailed_job_description-12
Comprehensive job description with specific NOC code, detailed tasks, required software (Simply Accounting, Excel, etc.), and clear qualifications indicate legitimate posting structure
- businessMatch-15
AWCSIT Construction Ltd is a registered business in BC with verifiable licensing for residential/commercial renovation; employer name matches posting
