The staffing industry has seen an increase in people falsely representing themselves as recruiters to gather personal information from job seekers. For your safety, do not provide sensitive data to anyone you have not spoken with thoroughly, never provide banking information during the application process and always double check the email address of the Recruiter to ensure it’s from an official Planet domain (@theplanetgroup.com, @theplanetforward.com, @planet-technology.com, @planet-pro.com, @planetinteractive.com, @pfes.com, @launchcg.com, @planet-pharma.com, @planet-healthcare.com) - and not a domain with an alternative extension like .net, .org or .jobs.

The Planet Group and our companies are equal opportunity employers. It is our practice not to discriminate against any employee or applicant based on any criteria, condition or basis protected by laws or regulations in the locations where we do business.
