Job scams often start in Telegram chats. Never send money, your passport or card details to anyone who offers you a job there. Diogenes can check this posting for you.

One free check a day, no account. The sample doesn't count. We never sell your personal data or train AI on what you paste.

About 40% of hiring managers admit they posted a fake job in 2024, and 85% of them interviewed people anyway. Diogenes checks whether the opening is real, whether the pay makes sense, and whether your application is worth the effort — before you spend a Saturday on it.

No account needed for your first check. We never sell your personal data or train AI on your resume.

Every other tool starts at step two — helping you apply faster to jobs nobody checked. Diogenes starts one step earlier, where the effort actually gets wasted.

Paste a posting. Diogenes reads it for the tells — repost history, vague scope, missing pay — then searches what's actually public about the company and the market rate.

2 credits per check · never returns a fake 100

Listed $110–135k. Market for this role and city sits at $105–130k — they're at the top of it, not fishing.

Three reviews mention the design team lost its lead in Q1. Worth asking who you'd report to.

Confidence 81% · anything Diogenes can't verify comes back empty, not invented.

The job's real. Now: is your application? Paste or upload your resume and the posting. Diogenes returns the verdict a recruiter thinks but never sends.

1 credit per check · saved to your account

You can pass the paper and still lose the room. A live mock interview, one question at a time, tailored to your resume and the role. Pick who's grilling you:

4 credits per interview · scorecard included

The Tank 🦈: pitch your worth to four investors. Each decides IN or OUT on whether you're worth what you're asking. 5 credits.

Ghost jobs and job scams, measured: the Ghost Job Index and our report on job scams across the former Soviet region. Every number comes with its source, method and limits.

It's a strong signal, not proof. Diogenes reads the posting for known warning signs and searches what's public about the company, then tells you how confident it is.

It can be wrong. That's why every verdict shows a confidence level and the exact signals behind it, so you can judge for yourself.

It flags warning signs it can quote from the posting itself: asking you to pay a fee, asking for your passport or ID before an interview, asking you to top up with crypto, or asking you to receive and forward transfers. It only says "likely scam" when it can point to signs like those.

It never says a job is safe. No tool can promise that: if anything about a job asks for your money or documents, stop and report it, whatever Diogenes says.

A posting with little or no real intent to hire right now: "always hiring" listings, reposts that never close, or postings used to collect resumes.

Each tool costs a few credits: a resume check is 1, a Job Check is 2, a mock interview is 4. Credits never expire, and nothing auto-renews.

Tell us. Email us the verdict and what you know, and we'll look at it. If a check fails on our side, you don't lose the credit.

We store what you choose to save, so it can pre-fill your checks. We never sell your personal data and never use your resume to train AI. You can delete your account, and everything in it, from Settings.

No. You buy credits when you need them. Job searches come in bursts, so we don't think you should pay monthly for one.

Credits are delivered instantly, so spent credits can't be refunded. If a purchase went wrong, you were charged in error, or a tool didn't deliver, email us, and you keep your rights under law.

We never sell your personal data. We never train AI on your resume. Ever.
