Examples of suspicious addresses include “Info@company.net” instead of “Info@company.com,” and misspelled company names like “Info@companie.com” or “Info@compaany.com.” If you do apply to our Brands through an official job board site rather than using our official website (jobs.knitwellgroup.com), report suspicious communication immediately to the site or platform used to submit your job application (such as an official job board site).
