There has been a recent increase in reports of job scams due to the rising number of unemployed young people in the country.
The job scams have targeted major companies and corporations in Kenya including KQ.
In November 2024, KQ flagged another job advertisement that was making rounds on social media claiming that there are vacant positions in the airline.
The national carrier clarified that the advertisement was fake and warned Kenyans from falling for it.
