Red Deer Polytechnic · Port Alberni, British Columbia · $70,437 - $112,872 annually

applies via employment.rdpolytech.ca

Verdict

Red Deer Polytechnic is a legitimate institution with an active careers portal, but this posting exhibits critical inconsistencies that strongly suggest fraud. The employer is located exclusively in Red Deer, Alberta, yet the posting claims a Port Alberni, British Columbia location—a geographic mismatch that is a hallmark of job scams. Additionally, the job title (Athletics Services Coordinator) does not align with the NOC code (Registered nurses), indicating either deliberate deception or a fraudulent repurposing of a legitimate employer's portal. While the application URL appears legitimate, the combination of location mismatch and role inconsistency elevates this to high fraud risk.
