Kenya Railways addresses 600 mass job recruitment
Kenya Railways dismisses viral fake 600 600 mass job recruitment alert at the corporation
Kenya Railways dismisses viral fake 600 600 mass job recruitment alert at the corporation.
Kenya Railways Corporation has dismissed viral posts indicating the parastatal is hiring over 600 members of staff.
In a post on social media, Kenya Railways said it has not announced any job openings.
According to the post, over 600 posts were advertised by Kenya Railways in a bid to improve operations.
The post now marked as fake indicated that the company is seeking to recruit CCTV operators, security officers, electricians, transport operators, and record keepers.
Other positions included in the post are clearance and forwarding officer, data entry clerk, cleaner, driver, receptionist, store manager, and legal services manager.
However, in a rejoinder, Kenya Railways said it had not advertised any jobs. “We wish to alert members of the public about a fake job advertisement doing the rounds on various social media platforms,” the company said.
According to Kenya Railways, the company advertises all openings through its website. “All our job openings are posted on our website and advertised through the mainstream media,” said Kenya Railways.
It asked job seekers to be cautious and verify any job adverts. “All our job openings are posted on our website and advertised through the mainstream media,” reads part of their statement.

The company further warned that it does not charge any fees for job applications, interviews, or placement.
Last month, Kenya Power was targeted with a similar scheme where at least 240 jobs were fraudulently advertised.
According to the post that originated from Facebook, Kenya Power was seeking interns, cleaners, guards, drivers, maintenance technicians, electrical technicians, financial accountants, store manager positions, customer care representatives, and data entry staff.
“The company is pleased to invite applications from qualified and interested Kenyans for the following vacancies across the country,” the fake poster read in part.
However, Kenya Power said this was all fake.
