IMPORTANT NOTICE: Fraudulent Job Ads

Greenberg Traurig (GT) is committed to ensuring a safe and transparent recruitment process. Please be advised of the following:

• Official Job Listings: All legitimate job opportunities with GT are posted here on our official website. GT job advertisements found outside our verified accounts with Lateral Hub, LinkedIn, Glassdoor, and Indeed should be treated with caution.

• No Fees Required: GT will never ask for payment for work equipment or network access. Also, there are no application fees. We do not ask for bank information or any form of monetary or financial compensation during the recruitment process. All job offers will be preceded by an interview with our hiring team.

• Verified Communication Only: While all official communications will come from a GT email address associated with GT’s domain (e.g., @gtlaw.com), we recognize that it is easy to spoof such communications to make them look like they are coming from GT. Therefore: before responding to an email purportedly from GT, contact your GT Recruiting Contact by phone to verify that the email is valid. Also, please verify the GT office address on our website before attending an interview.

We encourage all applicants to remain vigilant and exercise caution during the application process. If you encounter or suspect a fraudulent job posting or an individual falsely claiming to represent GT, please report it immediately to HRRecruit@gtlaw.com.
