SaaS Labs Accused of Misleading Job Postings Job seekers are raising red flags about troubling recruitment practices allegedly carried out by SaaS Labs, a company operating in the software-as-a-service (SaaS) space. Several candidates claim that the company is posting fake job listings on LinkedIn, disguised as legitimate hiring opportunities, but are in fact tactics to obtain free project work under the name of "recruitment assignments." Two recruiters frequently mentioned in these complaints are Akshit (HR) and Shirley (Product Recruiter). According to candidate testimonies, the process begins with flattery—profiles are said to be "liked too much" by the design team, with over-the-top praise that lacks credibility. But what follows is even more concerning: candidates are spammed with follow-up messages and calls—often up to 10 times a day, even when they’ve explicitly declined further participation or said they’re considering other opportunities. More disturbingly, calls are made from multiple contact numbers, creating a sense of pressure and making it harder for candidates to avoid the unwanted communication. Several have stated they were even asked to lie during interviews or pretend to be interested in roles they had no intention of pursuing. These tactics appear to be part of a deliberate strategy to push candidates into unpaid work under the false promise of a job. If true, this is a serious violation of professional ethics and fair hiring practices. It’s time for us to take a closer look at companies exploiting their recruitment tools, and for job seekers to remain cautious and report such behavior.
