⚠️ Recruitment Fraud Alert

Recently, we have been made aware of unauthorized individuals falsely presenting themselves as Fate Therapeutics employees or recruiters as part of online scams or phishing attempts.

Fate Therapeutics and its employees are not involved in these scams.

- Our Talent Acquisition team only corresponds from our @fatetherapeutics.com domain.

- At no stage in our hiring process will we require payment or ask you to make deposits in your bank account.

- We will only ask for personal information when applying for a position via our Careers page or thereafter.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
