smith22 - 2017-03-23

Below is the first email I received from the "school." They claimed to be Dr. Frederico Diazzi from the Benedict School Mirandola (which is a real school). They used the email jobs@benedictschoolmirandola.it and always included the email benedictschoolmirandola@gmail.com on the messages. Beyond the first email asking for scans of diploma and passport, and resume and picture, they were to confirm they received the documents and to schedule an interview. I just had the interview and it was very odd (I am still new at this though). He wanted to see how well I spoke English... is this something they do? He quickly asked me things like: describe myself professionally, had I been to Italy before, do I have experience working with children, when could I start, why should he hire me?

I had reached out to a person who said they previously taught at the school and that the school is indeed real, but I would have been contacted by a female Frederica and that email is incorrect.
