Semper Consulting sets rules for verifying recruiting outreach

Semper Consulting, a Marine Corps veteran-led sales consulting firm in Longwood, Florida, has verified its social accounts and limited recruiting messages to one official email as job scams surge nationwide. The company is also giving job seekers simple checks, free guides and a physical office to confirm outreach is legitimate.

Why it matters: - Job scams are rising fast, and Semper Consulting is trying to give applicants a clearer way to tell real recruiting outreach from fraud. - The company’s standards are meant to protect job seekers from fake offers that can lead to stolen money or personal information. - The guidance is especially relevant for transitioning service members, who the Federal Trade Commission has warned are being targeted through the same channels used by legitimate recruiters.

What happened: - Semper Consulting verified its official Facebook and Instagram accounts and set one recruiting email address: admin@semper-consulting.com. - The Longwood, Florida firm said recruiter Mackenzie Topinka sends all recruiting messages from that address. - President Tyler Lozier, a United States Marine Corps veteran, founded Semper Consulting. - The company said its name comes from the Marine Corps motto, Semper Fidelis, meaning “always faithful.”

The details: - Semper Consulting published five standards job seekers can use to check whether a message using the company’s name is real. - Recruiting outreach comes only from admin@semper-consulting.com, which matches the company’s website domain, semper-consulting.com. - The company’s official Facebook and Instagram accounts now display Meta’s verified badge. - Semper Consulting said it sources candidates through LinkedIn and ZipRecruiter. - The firm said it never asks candidates for money and never requests bank details, a Social Security number or a copy of an ID before a candidate has spoken with an actual person. - Semper Consulting said nothing costs a candidate anything at any stage. - The company’s office is at 1425 W State Rd 434, Suite 113, Longwood, FL 32750, and the office phone number is (321) 219-7366. - Semper Consulting also published two free guides for job seekers: “So Semper Consulting Reached Out About Your Resume… Now What?” and “Job Offer Giving Scam Vibes? Semper Consulting’s Guide to Spotting the Fakes.” - The first guide explains where the company finds candidate resumes and what a legitimate message from its team looks like. - The second guide outlines red flags in fake job offers and a quick check for unexpected messages. - The company said the same standards apply across Semper Consulting, including its Savannah, Georgia, office. - The Savannah office opened this summer under Alyra Tiemkongkarn, who grew into that role in Longwood.

Between the lines: - Semper Consulting is turning its recruiting process into a trust signal at a time when job scams are becoming more common. - The company is also linking its veteran identity to a practical consumer-protection message, not just branding. - Publishing exact contact details, verified social accounts and clear no-cost rules gives applicants multiple ways to cross-check outreach without guessing.

What’s next: - Semper Consulting says the same verification standards will apply as the company grows into new markets. - The firm says candidates should expect one official recruiting address, verified social accounts and no ambiguity about whether an opportunity is real. - The company’s public guides and contact information give job seekers a standing way to verify future outreach.
