1.AIM OF THE PROJECT

 There are a lot of job advertisement on the internet, even on the reputed job
advertising sites, which never seem fake. But after the selection, the so-called
recruiters start asking for the money and the bank details. Many of the candidates
fall in their trap and lose a lot of money and the current job sometimes. So, it is
better to identify whether a job advertisement posted on the site is real or fake.
Identifying it manually is very difficult and almost impossible.

 The main objective of FAKE JOBS LISTING DETECTION is to apply machine

learning to train a model for fake job classification. It can be train on the previous
real and fake job advertisement and it can identify a fake job accurately.
2.INTRODUCTION

 Employment scam is one of the serious issues in recent times addressed in the domain of Online
Recruitment Frauds (ORF).
 Fraudulent job advertisements can be posted against a reputed company for violating their
credibility. Hence, it is important to detect fake jobs.
 These fraudulent job post detection draws a good attention for obtaining an automated tool
identifying fake jobs and reporting them to people for avoiding application for such jobs
 The motive of this project is to verify authenticity due to numerous job scams and fake postings
because of unemployment. For this purpose, machine learning approaching is applied which
employs several classification algorithms for recognizing fake posts.
3.LITERATURE SURVEY

Proposed System:
Identifying fake jobs manually is very difficult and almost impossible. We
develop a project that uses machine learning to train a model for fake job classification.
It can be trained using the data of previous real and fake job advertisements and it can
identify a fake job accurately.

We are going to use Natural Language Processing (NLP), a component of

artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning libraries and classification algorithms to
detect whether it is real or fake. By implementing these the young job seekers will easily
identify whether the job posting is real or not.
4.SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
SPECIFICATION
4.1 HARDWARE REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION :
Processor : Intel Processor
RAM : 4GB DD RAM
HDD : 40 GB or more
Keyboard : Any standard normal keyboard
Mouse : Any optical mouse

4.2 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION:

Operating Systems : Windows 8/10
Programming Languages : Python(library)
Tools : Anaconda Navigator (Jupyter Notebook)
5.THE MODULES DESCRIPTION

There are many people who search for a real job on online portals, and the fake
recruiters are there who is wasting the time and energy of the people who are in the
need of a real job. Therefore, it is important to detect real and fake job.
Our Work includes the following modules:
Training Dataset - Previous data of real and fake job postings are pre processed
using NLP technologies
Pre processing - We will pre process the data by tokenizing and removing the stop
words.
Feature Extraction - The pre processed data will be used to extract features by using
techniques like TF (Term Frequency) and TFI-DF (Inverse Document Frequency)
Testing Data
Classification - to train the model a classification algorithm is used.
5.THE MODULES DESCRIPTION
6.CONCLUSION

Our motive is to automate the process of identifying whether a job posting is fake or
real that is nothing but verifying authenticity due to numerous job scams and fake
postings because of unemployment. For this purpose, machine learning approach is
applied which employs several classification algorithms for recognizing fake posts.

By implementing this project and growing in future, as the fraudulent people never
stop posting fake job advertisements, we will easily identify whether the job posting
is real or not.
