To reduce potential fraud, we remind all applicants: • It won’t cost you money to apply for a job with us. Our brands will never ask for money – that includes a wire transfer or a credit card. There will be no charge for equipment, background checks or other expenses in submitting a job application with us. • We will never ask for your bank account information as part of the interview process. Your bank account information should only be entered during the onboarding process after you are hired to set up direct deposit of wages. • Interviews will be conducted in-person or through a secure video call, using a teleconference application that uses email addresses only (not telephone numbers). • Watch closely for email addresses with misspelled or “spoofed” company names in communications during the interview process. Examples of suspicious addresses include “Info@company.net” instead of “Info@company.com,” and misspelled company names like “Info@companie.com” or “Info@compaany.com.” • If you do apply to our Brands through an official job board site rather than using our official website (https://www.ascena.com/home/our-careers/work-with-us/), report suspicious communication immediately to the site or platform used to submit your job application (such as an official job board site). • If you have any questions or are not sure if you’ve applied to our Brands, please reach out to myHRSupport@AscenaRetail.com to confirm. • If you believe you may be a victim of a scam, please contact your local law enforcement.
