IMPORTANT NOTICE: It has been brought to our attention that there are scam artists posing as recruiters, falsely offering employment on behalf of Mucci Farms, and accepting monetary funds to fraudulently begin the hiring process. We would like to make it clear that we do not condone or sanction this activity and under no circumstance would we request funds in advance of completing the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) Document. We always consider our legal options for these types of false impersonations, but in many cases, particularly internationally, the odds of tracing the perpetrators is extremely low. We truly feel for those that have been taken advantage of by such criminals.
