A NOTE ON RECRUITMENT FRAUD

Please be advised that recruitment fraud has affected a number of companies. In such schemes, individuals posing as legitimate recruiters may request personal information and payment from those seeking employment. Canopy Growth Corporation, its subsidiaries, and recruiting agencies will never ask for payment at any stage in the recruitment process.

If you are asked for payment of any kind from a recruiter, contact your local police department as this is very likely to be fraud.

If you believe you may be the victim of recruitment fraud, please reach out to us at canopyjobs@canopygrowth.com and report any issues to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
