It looks like the background check will be paid for by the company, and they do mention PAYE, so you shouldn't have to pay your own taxes, but a job offer with no interview and a one page contract does seem off to me.

Seems legit. No address, no companies house listing, no web prescence, and no LinkedIn profiles for the staff mentioned.

Also no paid leave. But who wants a holiday anyway.

Thanks Linda Robertson, HR Associate techzomo.com I haven't even had an interview, just did an online application. There's a link in one of them that opens a contract, which says it's for 4 years. Just seems too easy, or am i being too cynical? Have to pay myself for a background check, and it's a weekly wage as well.
