Sharing my experience publicly so that other job seekers stay careful.

I went through a recruitment process with RMT Engineering Company where I was repeatedly asked to submit highly sensitive documents including:

* PAN card

* bank statements

* payslips

* 10th/12th marksheets

All of these were requested through email even before any official offer letter was issued.

I was uncomfortable sharing my bank statements initially and clearly communicated that, but I was continuously told the documents were required for the hiring process. Trusting the company, I submitted everything in good faith.

After that, communication became completely unprofessional.

The HR handling my process later left the company, and since then there has been no proper point of contact, no application update, and no clarity regarding the status or safety of my documents.

I even contacted the office directly asking only for clarification regarding:

* whether my documents are still stored,

* whether they have been deleted,

* and who currently has access to them.

Instead of receiving professional communication, my calls were disconnected and I was told not to disturb further.

These are highly sensitive personal and financial documents shared over email, and the complete lack of transparency afterward is extremely concerning.

I have already spoken with the cyber department regarding the matter and was advised to formally document my concerns for the protection of my personal information.

Posting this so other candidates remain cautious before sharing confidential documents without:

* an official offer letter,

* proper company communication,

* or a secure onboarding process.
