We encourage you to explore job opportunities at TopBuild and to review openings that are listed on our website. We also encourage you to be wary of internet, email and telephone scams in which impersonators may try to take advantage of job seekers by pretending to represent prominent companies, including TopBuild. Intended victims may be invited to participate in bogus interviews, asked to fill out fabricated employment applications and, on occasion, have even been issued fake offer letters, all with the ultimate goal of trying to entice victims to pay money or divulge sensitive personal information. Note: We only review applications submitted directly through our online application via our official company pages or official Indeed and LinkedIn accounts. During the application process, we will communicate with you via emails ending only in @topbuild.com or @truteam.com or @service-partners.com or @distributionintl.com or americannationalinsulation.com. These are some examples of common tactics used in fake recruiting schemes include: • Communications that are unsolicited or unexpected or are from an individual or website with which you are unfamiliar or whose domain name is inconsistent with that used by the actual business. • Correspondence from free e-mail accounts, like Yahoo, Hotmail or Gmail. A TopBuild employee will not solicit candidates through a non-TopBuild email address or phone number. In addition, TopBuild does not currently utilize video chat rooms (e.g., Google Hangouts) to conduct interviews. • Communications that do not include information about a specific job opening (or the job description is vague) and/or extend a job offer without an interview. • Job opportunities that come from people you do not know and appear "too good to be true”. • Communications where the recruiter claims to have seen your resume on a site with which you are not familiar. • Communications at the application phase requesting your social security number, date of birth, bank account information, or other sensitive personal information. • Refuse any request that asks you to provide payment to participate in the hiring process (e.g., purchasing a “starter kit,” investing in training, or something similar). TopBuild will not ask you to pay any money at any point in the hiring process with the exception of reimbursable travel expenses. In addition, any payments made by TopBuild will be from official corporate accounts bearing the TopBuild name. Don’t trust checks from any other source.
